Rexford Cattanach discusses working with CPAs on business succession
Listen to the interview on the Business Innovators Radio Network: https://businessinnovatorsradio.com/interview-with-rexford-cattanach-president-of-keats-group-discussing-working-with-cpas-on-business-succession/
Rexford Cattanach, president of Keats Group, to discuss the essential role CPAs play in business succession planning. Rexford shares insights on how he collaborates with CPAs to enhance their services for business owner clients. He emphasizes the importance of their trust advisory relationship as beneficial to initiating succession planning discussions and business approaches from shared direct involvement to done-for-you specialized expertise. Rexford reflects on his early career experiences at Deloitte, highlighting the challenges of forming effective CPA relationships and the benefits of these partnerships in generating value for clients and growth for both advisory firms.
Enhancing Value to Clients: The tax season treadmill is not the way CPAs want to think about practice growth. Shifting their focus from primarily historical tax reporting to tax-efficient lifetime planning helps CPAs meet clients where they are now while avoiding future estate and income tax problems. These risks are found in expected places, such as a business interest or real estate, and unexpected places, such as large retirement accounts and annuity investments that are not needed for income. Approaching planning with an asset protection and wealth transfer mindset elevates the CPA's already established status as a trusted advisor.
The Shift from Historical Reporting to Proactive Planning : Traditionally, most CPAs have not initiated investment tax planning advice. However, significant tax legislation in the Secure Act and Secure Act 2.0 have made tax planning advice a high priority, with the scheduled sunset of lower income and estate tax rates in 2026. CPAs can and should help clients take advantage of planning opportunities that will provide their clients with more income to spend and more money to leave to people and causes that matter. A tax planning check-up is a quick, informative place to start.
Enhancing Client Relationships: When CPAs take the initiative to discuss tax planning in the context of business succession, they open the door to planning that increases valuation and identifies obstacles to a third-party sale or internal succession. Rexford shares that most business exits, in his experience, are triggered events, not planned exits. Advance succession planning will, in most situations, broaden the market for buyers, improve transition outcomes, and connect succession planning to the client's personal retirement planning needs. A business exit plan is only as effective as the selling owner's income plan.
Establishing Clear Valuations: Succession planning should start with a first big question what is important to the client? This discovery process is essential. The most common considerations to address first are income considerations and the tax and income risks of single filing status for married business families. A current business valuation will be required and should be determined in advance of conflict or major life events. Rexford describes this as having a healthy environment for business valuation.
