Your Concerns, Our Solutions

"My family owns a palm oil mill. We have been in business for over two decades. We are concerned about the intergenerational sustainability of the family's business, professionalising the business, and setting up a governance structure."
Family Business
We understand that due to various interests and family dynamics, there is bound to be friction when running a family business which can derail the business from its desired goals and objectives. As Family business and wealth Advisors, we provide advisory and governance services to Family Businesses. We help families identify key pillars and values that will serve both the best interests of the business and family members, and aid the long-term sustainability of the relationship among the family members, owners, and the Board.

We offer bespoke advice and produce relevant documentation detailing ownership succession, management succession, and sound corporate governance amongst others.

"I want to draft a will that would sufficiently capture my wishes for all of my properties and investments to take care of my family members. I want strict enforcement of my wishes upon my death.”

Your Will is your last and final wish in respect of your properties and wealth. Hence we are committed to ensuring that your Will is well detailed, specific to each beneficiary, and respected upon your death.

As your Executors, we ensure that the administration of your estate and execution of your wishes are in tandem with your instructions.

"I hold accounts and assets jointly with my wife but my wife and I both have children from previous marriages in addition to the ones we both have in our marriage. I am confused as to how I can distribute my estate given our blended family. What would you advise?"
Blended Family Wealth Planning
Blended families are not uncommon these days. This can complicate estate and wealth transfer planning because there are typically multiple heirs from different bloodlines involved. And when there are real estate and/or business interests to consider, things get even more blurry.
Maintaining control over this type of Estate to meet primary goals can still be simple but it's not always easy and does take some work.
While we acknowledge that different strokes will be applied for different scenarios, we can amongst other solutions, set up a trust that can acquire and manage the estate to support your families so that no one is indirectly disinherited.

“I am worried about the many regulatory and compliance issues I have with my business. I need a good corporate services provider to help with them.”
Governance
Governance is a very important integral part of any successful and sustainable business organization. Corporate Governance entails excellent management of the company, prompt compliance with statutory regulations and best practices., Board evaluation and continuous Board education. The consequence of not instituting a good corporate governance structure is very detrimental to the health of the business enterprise. When good corporate governance is abandoned, a company runs the risk of collapse, and not only the shareholders but everyone who has any interest whatsoever in the company suffers substantially.

“I am a business person, and I have accumulated significant assets and wealth over the years. I am truly thankful to Almighty God for His many mercies upon me and all the people who supported me in several ways in being successful.
Now, to pay it forward, I desire to give back to my community in any little way that I can.”
