As the U.S. economy continues to improve, so too has the job market, creating greater competition for talent. Today there are 0.9 unemployed persons per job opening1, contrast that with 1.9 prior to the latest recession and 6.6 per job opening in July of 2009. The labor market is tight.

Buy-Sell plans can make all the difference in a successful transfer of the business to surviving business owners in the event of a triggering event, such as the death, disability or retirement of one of them — all while protecting the financial interest of the surviving family members.
