  • What are appreciation rights?

    Appreciation rights allow your successor to share in the value they help create. For example, if your business grows from a $300,000 to a $600,000 valuation, and the successor has 50% appreciation rights, they earn $150,000 in value. This ensures both parties are aligned and benefit from the business's growth.
