Webinar: Consider an ESOP, If…
Many business owners think their only liquidity opportunity is a sale to private equity or to a competitor. Employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs) provide an alternative liquidity strategy that allow owners to receive full value, on a tax-advantaged basis, while rewarding employees and protecting their jobs. In this webinar, which is new to our webinar series, you will learn how to identify when an ESOP may be an appropriate planning strategy.
