While wealth is what excites everybody and draws utmost attention, it is good governance and robust compliance that ensures sustained wealth over generations.
The drive, determination and never say die spirit is what drives family businesses. Studies have concluded that family-owned businesses tend to outperform non-family-owned businesses due to multiple reasons. Their long-term outlook, ability to resist the temptations of the capital markets, which usually react to short-term events and reward quarterly achievement of financial results, is what works in the favour of the former. Long-term view allows these businesses the ability to invest in their foundations, conduct research and development as well as other institution building initiatives.
However, challenges of succession, alignment of ownership interests and strategic outlook amongst family members are some of the challenges that more than half the family-owned businesses find when setting up a formal succession and retirement plan. Therefore, to perpetuate the business, it is imperative that the founder or the family patriarch implements a strategy that delivers these objectives.
What comprises a family-owned business?
A passionate and dedicated family business thrives on strong value systems, stable leadership and quick decision-making abilities. However, as businesses scale, the challenges of building a multi-generational business, which perpetuates the legacy of the founder, become critical. A family-owned business conventionally refers to a business where the family members are active in the business and have at least 20% economic interest in it. Often, wealthy families consider establishing a family office to manage their investments, reporting, philanthropic and financial responsibilities. In order to properly structure and staff a family office, an analysis of tax and governance considerations is key, along with a deep understanding of the family’s short and long-term business goals and objectives.
