[EP 242] The Importance of Shareholder Agreements (Part 2)

March 15, 2023

Welcome to the second half of our Shareholder Agreements series. Today, we return with Simon Bedard, the Founder and CEO of Exit Advisory Group. In this episode, we continue our discussion on Shareholders' Agreements. Our host, Joanna Oakey and guest Simon Bedard highlight the critical role of Shareholder Agreements in navigating disagreements and exits. In this episode, we also emphasise the dangers of relying on templates and the need to work with a commercial lawyer to ensure your agreement is structured appropriately. They also touch on timing, keyman insurance and how drafting a Shareholder Agreement as soon as possible minimises future issues, along with examples from their respective businesses.
