Committee Overview

The mission of the Closely Held and Growing Business Enterprises Committee is to address issues of particular interest to start ups, owner managed, closely held and family businesses and their legal advisors, and to organisations with ambitions for growth.

The Committee's aim is to provide a focus for the different needs of ownership, management and financing such organisations.

Particular focus is placed on:

  • Management and ownership issues;
  • Finance and the raising of tiers 1 and 2 capital;
  • Shareholder issues and agreements;
  • Business succession plans;
  • Exit planning;
  • Relationships with outside investors;
  • Protection of minority interests;
  • Dispute monitoring and resolution;
  • The role of professionals in management and advisory roles;
  • Relevant issues arising from tax, employment, real estate, estate planning and family law. 

Additionally, the Closely Held and Growing Business Enterprises Committee works with the Corporate and M&A Law Committee to form the Corporate Law Section.
