Mr Stewart will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of using a trust to own the family business and some of the critical tasks that a family needs to engage in. Trusts are often marketed in Asia as a succession planning device, and as a tool that can help keep wealth in a family for more than three generations. Clearly there are certain benefits of using a trust structure that tax and trust advisers can articulate for their clients. There is an often quoted statistic that only one third of family owned businesses will make it into the second-generation and something like a 10% chance of survival into the third generation. The theory of family owned businesses helps to explain these statistics by reference to a “three circle model”, which says that a family owned business is made up of three overlapping systems.
