Business succession

You may be planning to sell your business to a family member or a third party, or you may be considering releasing capital for other uses. Perhaps you are seeking to reduce the time spent running your business. Whatever your approach, business succession can be challenging and complex.

ANZ can help you to achieve your succession goals either by working directly with you, the business owner, or with management teams seeking to take a stake in the future ownership of the business.

Succession scenarios can include:

  • Leaving a business
    ANZ can advise on different exit strategies and we may also be able to find and fund a potential purchaser.

  • Bringing family into the business
    ANZ can advise on different strategies and funding solutions for both owners and family members. We may also be able to introduce other investors, if appropriate, and can often provide financial support for family members wanting to buy into a family business.

  • Releasing capital to fund other pursuits
    We are often able to fund a significant release of capital, enabling owners to free up cash for other uses, while remaining shareholders - either in full or in partnership with current or new managers.

  • Management buyout
    Many business owners decide to offer their management team the opportunity to buy in to the business. Despite a common lack of capital, we are often able to facilitate such a transaction, funding a management team’s part purchase of the business, either gradually or as a lump sum.
