1. Identify the Objectives

This preliminary step ensures a sound understanding of the business’s situation and of the directors’ intentions. We seek to find what sets the business apart, its short, mid and long-term needs as well as the directors’ concerns.

2. Gathering of Relevant Data and Accessing It

We look at past decisions and analyze to what extent they can lead you to where you wish to go.

3. Identification of Improvement Opportunities

With a full series of analysis, we look at how to accelerate the achievement of the corporate objectives and those of its directors.

These steps can be translated into components of our analysis. Based on the objectives, we can perform all or only certain elements of the process.

Retirement Planning and Assets Allocation Planning

Your business is an important part of your retirement estate but it is often your riskiest investment. However, you have control over a multitude of factors that can have positive repercussions on the final result.

We will forecast your future assets in order to see if the pace of your savings and growth suffice to achieve your objectives.

Thereafter, we analyze your entire asset portfolio to understand its strengths and weaknesses. This is done in parallel with the analysis of your capacity to take (or not) certain risks in order to analyze if your current strategy can be detrimental to you in the long-term.

  • analysis of the shareholder agreement;
  • analysis of your devolution strategy in the event of a death;
  • analysis of the tax effectiveness of your structure;
  • analysis of the estate cash flow in order to cover estate tax.
