How to sell my business

Selling your business is normally the last step in starting a business. When the time comes, you want to leave your business, retire, and eventually take as much value as possible from it. It’s a huge decision and a challenging task, with many legal and financial implications to consider.

Watch Nicky Goringe Larkin, Managing Director at Succession Planning, and Stuart Mullins, Corporate Partner at Clarkslegal, as they discuss selling and buying a business, the options available, and where to get support.

The interactive discussion includes:

  • Routes to Exit
  • Trade Sales
  • Management Buyouts
  • Employee Ownership
  • Succession preparation and timelines
  • The right time and maximising your enterprise values
  • How to get the mechanics of the deal right

Should you wish to discuss any of the issues highlighted in the webinar, please email marketing@clarkslegal.com.
