Every 75 seconds a new business is launched in the UK, with over 85% of those businesses being family or owner-managed.

From setting up your own business to planning for your exit or succession, Family and Owner-managed Businesses come with their own set of challenges. What should be a straightforward issue or challenge can often be intertwined with family dynamics and tensions.
