Our entrepreneurs team advises start-ups, young entrepreneurs and serial entrepreneurs – particularly those in the technology, consultancy and financial markets – on the full range of management, commercial and financial challenges including raising funds, managing growth, accounting and control systems and auditing and compliance. We also have a strong track record in floating companies on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM). Yet in addition to the services provided for their companies, we advise many of these people in their own right.

Entrepreneurs are particularly keen to protect the family wealth they have created. Typically, they will seek our help in structuring their affairs to save inheritance tax and will often use trusts to protect their wealth for their children and/or to make charitable contributions. The firm’s leading position in the not for profit sector is of great value to many private individuals who are keen to support charitable causes.

Our colleagues in haysmacintyre financial planning will also be able to assist entrepreneurs in their investment planning and in the options for retirement planning.

Entrepreneurs will also be keen to secure the loyalty and motivation of their key personnel and we can advise on share schemes and other options. This may extend to advice on a range of succession issues – which is often an issue for entrepreneurs and one that may have repercussions for the wealth being passed on to future generations. All exit strategies will have tax issues that need early consideration and careful planning.
