Episode 01 - Regions Wealth Podcast Series

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, about 90 percent of American businesses are family-owned or controlled. What happens when the owners of those businesses want to retire? It’s the biggest question for any business owner: When you’re planning for retirement, should you pass your business on, or should you sell it? And if you pass it on, who should receive it? Wealth Planning Executive Bryan Koepp joins us to discuss what factors business owners need to consider before selling their business or creating a succession plan. (15:16)
