Partnerships and small private companies may run extremely well under normal circumstances, in no small part due to the long-term relationships and goodwill of the shareholders and partners themselves. However, in the event of one of them becoming seriously ill or dying, major difficulties can ensue for both the family and the partnership.

Partnership and share purchase assurance are designed to provide for such a contingency and thus ensure that the family is properly provided for, and that the business can continue to run smoothly.

Partnership assurance and share purchase arrangements operate by:

  • Allowing the continuing partners to buy their colleagues' share in the business and thus ensure control and ongoing operation.
  • Providing a reliable way for the afflicted partner (or widow/heir) to obtain a just commercial purchase price for that person's share of the business.

By planning and putting proper arrangements in place now, the family can spend their time and effort recovering from the shock of the event rather than seeking an elusive buyer or price for their shares. In addition, the partners can concentrate on moving the business forward.
