FAMILY BUSINESS ADVISORY

FALCON AMERICAS BROTHERS ADVISORS has a special focus on family businesses. We have a keen understanding that the nature of a family business is inherently different from a non-family company. We believe that successful family businesses have a sustainable balance between the strategic position of the company, management, ownership, and unique family dynamics. We have longstanding expertise with the dynamics and character of family business and also recognize the emotional value in our assignments.

One of the most important assets of a family business is that it is focused on continuity and the long term. Moreover, its connection with its customers, suppliers and staff is strong. When decision-making, management keeps family values in mind, and family members who work within the company endeavor to make the company as successful as possible before handing it over to the next generation.

In our practice we handle family business assignments such as:

  • Handing over the company within or outside the family
  • Preparation of company for suitable investor search
  • Valuation
  • Strategic reviews
  • Corporate governance
