Selling Your Business To An Employee Ownership Trust


To sell your UK business to an employee ownership trust (EOT) it must have:

  1. A ratio of “participators” (shareholders with at least 5% ownership) to permanent UK employees of no more than 2:3

  2. Sufficient profitability to make the structure work: we advise a minimum of £400k per annum

From your answers it seems that selling to an EOT is not the right solution for your business.

Thank you for your time.
