Preparing Yourself For The Liquidity Event.

Presented By: BNY Mellon Wealth Management / McCarthy, Lebit, Crystal & Liffman Co., L.P.A.

The list of common pitfalls executives encounter leading up to the partial or full sale of a company—and the cash windfall—can be extensive. Too often, owners are laser-focused on engineering the sale, which means planning for their own financial future can be delayed. Join us as we pull back the curtain with executives who have taken chips off the table, a senior wealth manager, and an estate attorney as they explore the “do’s” and “don’t”s of getting ready for the liquidity event.
