In addition to ESOPs and rollups, Cendrowski Corporate Advisors’ tax specialists can also assist with generational management buyouts from past ownership to new company owners or middle management using tax-efficient strategies, including compensatory transfers like non-qualified stock options and carried interests.
Cendrowski Corporate Advisors has assisted businesses with tax-efficient “nonqualified” deferred compensation strategies, i.e., plans other than IRAs or 401(k)s.
