Have you ever thought of what might happen if one of your directors, who is also a shareholder in your business, dies or becomes critically ill?
Of course, you’d miss their presence, as well as their experience and expertise. But do you know what would happen to their shares?
An uncertain future
The dispersal of a director’s shares could have a significant impact on your business’s stability. The shares might pass to another individual who has little knowledge or interest in the business.
They may even gain significant control of the company and take decisions that may not be in the best interests of the other directors, employees or customers.
You could always buy those shares back, but could the remaining directors afford to do so?
