Matthew R. Crow, CFA, ASA, president, and Nicholas J. Heinz, ASA, senior vice president will present the topic “Pathways to Liquidity: Advising Your Clients in Monetizing Their Illiquid Wealth” at the Thursday mid-day program (October 23th).
With the current uptick in the economy and the demographic realities of baby boomer business owner transitions, estate planners have a client base that may be seeking to monetize their investment in their closely held businesses. Many business owners immediately assume that means an outright sale. However, there are other liquidity options to consider.
This session will cover these various liquidity options including dividend policy, partial sales to insiders, employee stock ownership plans, private equity investors, as well as third party sales.
