Our Business Succession Planning Services

Our end-to-end succession planning service includes everything from strategy and valuations to tax advice and stakeholder management. We’ll help you build a practical plan aligned with your goals.

Handing your business down to the next generation requires thoughtful planning and open communication.

We help family businesses navigate the personal, financial, and operational challenges of succession—from choosing the right heir, to balancing fairness among siblings, to preserving wealth across generations.

We’ll structure the transfer in a way that protects family relationships, maintains business performance, and ensures a tax-effective outcome.

Our role is to make sure both the business and the family are well-prepared for the transition.

In some cases, the best successors are already inside the business.

If you’re planning a management buyout, employee share scheme, or internal leadership transition, we’ll help you plan and execute it.

Our team will assess internal capability, structure the ownership change, and work with you to ensure knowledge transfer and business stability.

We also provide mentoring and strategic advisory to prepare internal successors for leadership, ensuring a smooth and confident transition.

If your exit involves selling the business, your succession plan should be built around maximising value and preparing for sale.

We’ll guide you through the process from a succession lens—focusing not just on financials, but also on making the business attractive and sustainable under new ownership.

This includes pre-sale planning, tax structuring, identifying value drivers, and supporting you during negotiations.

We also collaborate with trusted business brokers and legal professionals to ensure you’re supported throughout.

FAQs

FAQ Accordion
What is business succession planning?
Business succession planning is the process of preparing to transfer ownership and control of your business, whether to family members, employees, or external buyers. It helps ensure continuity, reduce tax liabilities, and protect your financial future.
When should I start succession planning?
Ideally, succession planning should begin 3–5 years before you intend to step back. Early planning gives you time to build value, prepare successors, and transition gradually.
Is succession planning only for family businesses?
Not at all. While family-run businesses often use succession planning, it’s equally important for sole traders, partnerships, and SMEs looking to sell or transition internally.
What’s the difference between exit planning and succession planning?
Exit planning often focuses on selling the business, while succession planning includes internal transfers, generational change, or leadership handover. At M2 Corporate, we help with both—depending on your goals.
Can M2 Corporate help with the sale of my business?
Yes. If your succession plan includes selling, we’ll assist with valuations, tax structuring, financial documentation, and connecting you with trusted brokers and legal professionals.
