Owners of family and private businesses often see them as a way of providing their retirement benefits and future financial security, anticipating that selling their business to provide a capital sum will provide for their retirement, in which case the questions they should ask are

How can I ensure that my business has an independent and financially secure life of its own and importantly an adequate capital value when I sell and am no longer involved?

How can I protect the business from a falling value if factors in the market place change dramatically and economic conditions are unfavourable at the time of retirement?

Should I consider spreading my investment risks in advance of the potential sale of the business?

This may work, but what if they cannot dispose of their business for a suitably large capital sum? and thus cannot rely on this for their income in retirement? Every business owner should answer the question: "How can I be sure that I will be able to provide for my retirement income?", and Kingsworld can help with the answer to this.
