Protect your legacy

This is your life’s work. Succession planning ensures you’ll pass on a legacy, not just your assets.

It’s your call

You may wish to leave a family concern to the next generation, sell up or develop new leadership from within. We help you arrange the details to cover all contingencies - including the option to become part of Benchmark Financial Planning.

Every plan is bespoke

We'll find the solution that's right for you and one that meets your goals. And we can introduce you to our network so you can learn from their experience.

Support at every step

Whether it's training your successor through our academy, helping you identify suitable candidates or supporting you with funding, we'll help you every step of the way.

Become part of Benchmark Financial Planning

We can fully or partially acquire firms. But first we'll work with you on a business plan so you can plot out the acquisition price you want and the timeframe to go after it.
