Business Succession & Trusts


Succession with consequences: planning for what comes after

Whether it is planning and structuring business succession or securing assets and making provisions through an Austrian private foundation: we advise our clients on law of succession matters, and all tax and commercial law aspects of business succession.

From setting up succession models to managing trusts and foundations

Planning and structuring of company succession involves protecting the vested interests of a business as well as safeguarding private assets and providing for descendants. Inheritance, tax and and commercial law aspects must be considered in an interrelated manner.

In certain scenarios, an Austrian private foundation may be a sensible and useful instrument to achieve these goals, e.g., to avoid the fragmentation of company or other assets. Our team has extensive experience in the field of trust and foundation law. We have successfully established a large number of private foundations for our clients and have been assisting them in all matters for decades. Our work is aimed at assisting in the design and implementation of the ideal business succession plan that best suits each individual client’s objective, establishing and managing private foundations, as well as wealth planning and providing financial security for family members over generations.
