KNABBEN & CO. PRIVATE EQUITY
Familievermogen & Generatieoverdracht
A discreet perspective on continuity, ownership, and succession for family businesses and shareholder families.
Continuity
Ownership that can endure across generations.
For family businesses, the conversation is often not only about capital, but about stewardship, control, and the future shape of the enterprise.
01
Family businesses
Enterprises where ownership, identity, and continuity are closely linked.
02
Generation transfer
Careful transitions that preserve value and direction.
03
Shareholder families
Structures where governance and alignment matter deeply.
04
Strategic ownership
When a partner can support succession or future development.
Approach
Measured, discreet, and aligned.
We look for situations where a thoughtful investor can help simplify complexity, support continuity, and create space for the next chapter.
Themes
What the page considers
Succession planning
How responsibility may move from one generation to the next.
Ownership structure
The balance between control, participation, and long-term intent.
Governance
Decision-making, oversight, and accountability in family-related settings.
Liquidity events
Partial or full transitions where capital structure needs attention.
Partial or full transfer, depending on the family’s objectives.
Some situations call for a strategic co-owner; others for a broader ownership transition. The right structure depends on the business and the family’s priorities.
Family holdings
Structures with continuity in mind.
Where holdings, voting rights, and capital interests are separated, clarity in structure becomes essential for both harmony and long-term value creation.
Succession
A transition with dignity.
We understand that succession is more than a transaction. It is often an emotional, strategic, and generational turning point that deserves care.
