Shareholder Protection

When businesses are formed, the founding shareholders create a vision of the direction the business will take. The sudden loss of a major shareholder can cause disruption. Without the capital to buy the shares, you could find yourself working with whoever inherits them, which could mean someone with a very different vision calling the shots.

Shareholder protection provides a lump sum on the death or serious illness of the shareholder / partner, which enables the remaining parties to buy back the shares, from the deceased’s beneficiaries. In this way, the beneficiaries receive the full value of the shares and you maintain the control and equilibrium of your business.
