Protection and legacy in acquisition
Staff, customers, culture, reputation, and the owner's continued involvement. The parts of an acquisition that are often described last but matter most.
About protection & legacy
This topic sits within the acquisition hub of the Mantle Partners resources. What gets protected when a business changes hands — and how to structure that into the deal. It lists the pieces published so far.
Who these resources are for
They are written for owners of owner-led businesses in the United Kingdom, and for the accountants, solicitors and trusted advisors who sit alongside them. Mantle Partners supports the advisor relationship and does not replace it.
