A management buyout, or MBO, offers an attractive option for selling a middle-market company to the people who know it best – the management team. B.G. and Geordie Lemmon discuss how their family office views these businesses as partners and share insights on what can make an MBO successful. They discuss what the family office looks for in a company, how the finances work, how the management team is involved, how the company can grow over time, and what this means for the next generation of management owners.
