If you’re a business owner, or someone who is interested in becoming one, you may come across a few challenges along the way. From day-to-day operations to strategic decision-making, it takes a lot of moving hands to manage the different areas of the business at the same time.

With the complexities of running a business in mind, it’s important to consider having an Oppenheimer financial professional by your side. Financial professionals are equipped with an array of skills to help you transform your business. From financial planning to introducing new benefits for your employees and helping you plan your exit strategy, they are accustomed to personalizing their services to you and your company’s goals.

Here are a few ways Oppenheimer financial professionals can help you transform your business:

Structuring Your Company’s Financials to Help Achieve Your Goals

Financial professionals possess extensive knowledge and experience, enabling them to help provide you with suitable advice on structuring your business to meet its financial goals.

Whether you aim for financial stability, equity preservation, or capital growth, your advisor is a valuable asset in providing you with a diverse set of skills that can help you bridge the gap between your current business position and your desired future aspirations.

If you’re already a business owner with financial stability, an Oppenheimer financial professional can provide dynamic and adaptable strategies to accommodate the evolving and changing needs of your business.

Implementing Benefit Plans and Risk Management

Interested in introducing benefit plans to your employees, or improving upon existing ones? Financial professionals go beyond financial planning and can assist you with establishing employee benefit plans such as: retirement programs, healthcare options, employee stock ownership plans (ESOPs), and flexible work arrangements. These may not only help you foster a supportive work environment, but could also attract and retain top talent.

If you’re concerned about future events such as accidents or unforeseen circumstances in or out of the workplace that could affect your employees and your business, a financial professional can recommend comprehensive insurance plans designed to help ensure your business operations run smoothly even throughout any sudden misfortunes.

Planning your Exit Strategy and Transferring Ownership

Going through the process of passing on or selling your business can be quite complex. However, a financial professional can also help you navigate through all the intricacies of these actions. Through managing succession planning and wealth transfer preparation, they can help you facilitate a smooth transition of ownership for your business.

If you’re not ready to retire, a financial professional can develop a strategy that allows you to leverage the sale of your business to help you achieve your own personal financial goals.


No matter how complex your company’s goals are, a financial professional will be ready to help guide you in getting your business from where it is now to where you want it to be. The relationship with your financial professional is dynamic, flexible, and customized to aid you in transforming your business at every stage of the process. With a financial professional by your side, you have limitless opportunities to enhance and evolve your business.
