ARE YOU SITTING ON ACRES OF DIAMONDS?
How Wealth Planners can help their clients and increase their assets under management
Right now, today, as you read this article you could be sitting on acres of diamonds … in the rough. What do they look like? They are your business owner clients who over the last 15, 20 or maybe 30 years have focused their life’s efforts on building a successful small business and are now ready to move on to the next chapter of their lives. Are you positioned to help them make that transition?
Current estimates suggest 10,000 baby boomers are retiring every day, and many of these are business owners. Your business owner clients need a professional and effective solution for selling their businesses and freeing up their wealth, which you can provide. Here are some simple facts:
• Every privately held business is either sold, passed on through inheritance or ceases to exist.
• According to a survey of business owners conducted by American Family Business, about 60% - 80% of a family’s wealth is tied up in their company.
• Less than 10% of all businesses passed on to the second generation succeed and less than 4% survive the third generation.
Recognizing the huge opportunity this represents, many large banks, brokerage houses and accounting firms have established M&A practices in house to handle the sale of midsize businesses.
