Family Businesses

Local small and medium sized businesses (SMEs) are the keystone of R T Marke's client base. You will benefit from the considerable specialised knowledge and experience which R T Marke has cultivated in this sector over the years.

As R T Marke & Co commenced trading in 1985 as a family business itself, as a father and two sons, we feel we are able to have an insight into not only how to start up and grow a business, but also how this uniquely can be achieved in a family organisation.

For many people, the main priorities for a family business are that of succession planning, to ensure that the business can be effectively passed on to the next generation if appropriate. To do this, the family business needs to recognise that systems need to be in place to enable the next generation to efficiently operate the business. We can help this process by the following:


  • Discussing with you your long term requirements and helping you affect change to achieve them.

  • Help create systems so as to reduce the dependency on any individual family member.

  • Ensure the business is structured in a way to minimise potential inheritance tax and capital gains tax liabilities for any changes in the family business.

  • Work with you to highlight any areas of commercial risk and to make suggestions as to how these can be reduced or removed.

As a family business you have all the benefits and rewards of owning and running a small business and being in charge of your own destiny, but we appreciate that this can sometimes be a lonely process and we are thus only a telephone call away to help you make the right decision.

If your family business is looking for a personal service, then why not phone us today to see how our exceptional service levels can benefit you and your family.'
