COTD: More than half of businesses lack succession plans

This is despite family business leaders wanting to keep their businesses in the family.

More than half (55%) of Singaporean entrepreneurs have no business succession plan in place, according to a The Wealth Management Institute report.

This is despite 78% of family business leaders across US, European, and Asian markets aim to keep their businesses in the family.

Regionally, Taiwan (65%) and Hong Kong (64%) lead Asian countries with no plan, followed by Singapore, UAE (48%), and India (47%).

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
