If you're considering selling or transferring your business, you're probably focusing on the business itself first. At KBC Private Banking, however, our key concern is how your personal wealth will be affected by the sale or transfer.
Your personal wealth following the sale or transfer
All of your time and energy will be going towards your business when the transfer is taking place, so it's a good idea to plan your personal situation in advance. After all, it's much more difficult to make adjustments once the transfer has taken place.
At KBC Private Banking, we provide you with a thorough analysis of your personal wealth before and after the sale or transfer. In addition to business advice, our experts offer you additional advice from a personal perspective. This all takes place in consultation with your SME adviser, your wealth guidance specialist and your accountant.
