What is the most tax-efficient business model?
Co-operative business models offer no business or personal tax advantages over traditional business models. However, a Trust Fund is often used to establish an employee owned business, and that can be a tax-efficient way of building value for the new owners. There are also tax-efficient ways of exiting from a company (which will be of interest to family-owned businesses looking to sell the company to the employees). However specialist advice is needed as this is a complex area.
