In focus: Successfully meeting the special challenges of succession

Company succession as a special M&A case was the focus of the meeting of the BDU Association for Founding, Development and Succession. On the one hand, the special pitfalls that advisors must address in a solution-oriented manner during M&A processes and contract drafting were discussed intensively. In particular, various scenarios were used to work out how the challenge of pension commitments can be solved in the event of company succession. The discussion on the topic of corporate platforms was supplemented by a joint workshop.

Jean-Claude Baumer, Chairman of the Association’s Board of Directors, looking back on the meeting: “We consultants and, in particular, our clients benefit from our regular work meetings and professional exchanges.”
