Selling a
Business


Selling
Your Business?

During the life of nearly every business owner, there comes a point when one considers selling all or part of the company. For some owners, the decision to sell a business and transfer the risks and responsibilities to someone else is the clear choice. For others, the decision to sell may not be so cut and dry. It may make more sense to seek a financial partner who really understands the industry and the business opportunities a recapitalization would bring. It may be time to sell only a division, subsidiary or product line in order to improve the long term prospects for a company.
