A new chapter for your family and business.
The life you have built.
Their future ahead.
The years spent building a business. The people who give it meaning. Planning begins by putting what matters into words.

Which countries, family members and businesses are involved? Which trust, foundation or company questions need review? Separate Bona’s establishment and administration scope from matters for legal and tax advisers.
Confirm the initial response, fees and engagement scope individually. This page does not quote a fixed fee, deadline or specific deliverable. Legal and tax judgments remain with the relevant professionals.

Labuan office, KL contact and directionsTHREE DIFFERENT QUESTIONS
What you pass on. What you entrust.
Separating ownership, management and benefit helps frame the questions for your advisers.
OWNERSHIP
What passes on.
Distinguish legal ownership today from what you would like to pass on.
DECISIONS
Who decides.
Consider everyday decisions, significant future decisions and the people you want involved.
PURPOSE
For whose future.
Make clear whose life, education or business continuity the plan should support.
PUT THE QUESTION ON PAPER
Put the decisions
on one page.
For example, when considering the next generation’s business ownership and decisions, separate the current decision maker, the people you want involved and the conditions still to confirm.
Illustrative preparation note — not a client case
