These companies provide unique challenges for professional advisers who help clients plan for the succession of their corporate interests. The panel addresses questions such as who should serve as both a corporate director/officer and a trustee, how is it possible to deal with conflicts between the corporate duties and the fiduciary obligations of trustees, what are the options for removing cash from a company and redeeming shares, and how can beneficiaries’ rights to information about the company best be managed. This panel is of particular interest to professionals who engage in planning with clients who own a family business.
