Looking for family business consulting?
ABFI offers valuable programs, services and advice
Consider the facts. Family-owned business:
- Generates approximately 60% of Canada’s Gross Domestic Product
- Employs 6 million workers in Canada (both full-time and part-time)
- Creates 70% of all new jobs in North America
- Provides 55% of all charitable donations
Staggering, isn’t it? Yet, 70% of family-owned businesses fail before they are passed on to the second generation. That figure jumps to 88% for third-generation succession and 97% for fourth. (Family Business Institute)
