Planning an exit – whether by sale, wind-down, or formal insolvency – requires careful timing, strategic foresight, and risk management. Navigating this phase with clarity and control is critical to ensure a confident exit can be made with maximised returns.
BTG will work alongside you to devise and execute a bespoke exit strategy that aligns with your commercial objectives and personal preparedness. Our role is to guide you through the legal, financial, and operational considerations involved in stepping away from a business or investment, while protecting your position and reputation and maximising value.
Our services include assessing exit options (including solvent closure, share or asset sale, or a management buyout), identifying risks, and managing creditor and stakeholder expectations, as well as post-exit considerations. We also advise on director duties, regulatory obligations, tax considerations, and contingency planning in case of unforeseen issues.
Successfully exiting a business often necessitates striking a delicate balance between aligning peak market timing with peak business performance, as well as careful consideration of your own personal readiness. By engaging early, a more meticulous exit strategy can be formulated and expectations set, making for a smoother transition when the time comes.
We help identify deal blockers, legacy issues, or potential disputes before they derail the process to achieve a smooth and rewarding exit.
Whether you are selling a founder-led business, retiring from a family enterprise, or preparing a portfolio company for disposal, we bring a calm, commercial approach to what is often a sensitive and high-stakes process.
Stay ahead with commentary on the latest sector trends, regulatory changes and market developments from our team of experts.
