2. Financing Expansion

What needs to be done, if it doesn’t make sense to finance expansion and company growth through a classic bank loan, or it’s just not possible?

• Prospects for financing the company
• The need for financial resources to secure liquidity
• The need for financing; and requirements for internal or external capital

3. Increasing Assets

The assets of a company owner usually increase in steps. By company profits that do not need to be paid-out. By sustainable, profitable growth. By increasing company value. Important topics affecting this process include:

• Increasing EBIT, cash-flow and company value
• Multiplying company assets
• Having the right dividend and pay-out policy
• Separating company and private assets from each other to avoid risks
• Turning company assets into private assets

4. Securing Assets & passing them on

Companies that have been successful over many years, often possess large financial reserves – stock investments, shares in other companies, substantial liquid assets, real estate, art etc. Besides managing all these assets, the question of company succession becomes an important subject sooner or later as well:

• Optimal structuring of company assets
• Professional consulting for company asset management
• Preparing for long-term succession
• Shareholder participation in selling the company, during a management buy-out or other forms of company succession.
