SUMMARY:Succession of family businesses
DESCRIPTION:Family-held businesses large and small are confronted with ge
 nerational transfers on average every 25 to 30 years. These generational
  transfers can give rise to a variety of legal issues\, conflicts\, and 
 adverse tax ramifications\, which may be mitigated and/or prevented with
  proper planning. Our panel of tax and legal specialists active in this 
 field of law over a variety of continents will touch on the following:\n
 \n• variations of family businesses on five continents with a comparison
  among Europe\, the US\, South America\, Africa and Australia\;\n• struc
 tural issues\, such as the use of trusts\, foundations\, holdings and fa
 mily charters to carry out succession goals\;\n• tax issues and the avai
 lable exemptions on transfer of the family-held business to the next gen
 eration during life or at death\;\n• how to maintain active and/or passi
 ve control over the family business within multi-generational turmoil\; 
 and\n• how to foster the coexistence of active and passive second and th
 ird-generation shareholders and the available 'remuneration schemes' for
  income out of capital.
