The questionsowners ask first
- Do I have to sell 100%?
- No. Majority sale, minority investment and new share issuance are all possible, and we help you compare them.
- Can I stay with the company after the sale?
- Yes. Many Japanese buyers want founders to stay for a transition period or longer.
- What does it cost if no deal happens?
- Nothing. We charge no retainer and no upfront fee. Our fee is paid only on closing.
- Will buyers see my company’s name right away?
- No. Your name is shared only after an NDA is signed and with your approval.
- What if my financial records need work?
- Our accounting and tax teams can help you get ready before we approach any buyer.
- How are foreign ownership limits handled?
- We design the structure within local rules, drawing on our in-country legal teams.
