Business Protection Strategy

Protect the financial stability of your business, your partners, and your family when unexpected events occur.

Business success is built over many years — but it can be severely disrupted by unforeseen events such as the death, disability, or critical illness of a key shareholder, director, or partner.

Onyx Dominion Capital structures comprehensive Business Protection Strategies designed to safeguard ownership continuity, protect company cash flow, and ensure the long-term stability of the enterprise.

Our approach combines insurance structuring, shareholder agreements, estate alignment, and governance planning to ensure businesses survive beyond the individuals who built them.

Why Business Protection Matters

Every business depends on key individuals.

When one of them is suddenly unable to participate in the business, several risks arise:

Loss of leadership or operational capability

The sudden loss of a founder, partner, or executive can destabilise the organisation.

• Financial strain on the company

Unexpected events can disrupt revenue and place pressure on cash flow.

Disputes between shareholders or families

Ownership disputes may arise if succession arrangements are unclear.

Our Business Protection Framework

Onyx Dominion structures protection strategies through four key pillars:

Shareholder Protection

Ensures remaining shareholders can purchase the shares of a deceased or disabled partner without destabilising the business.

Key Person Protection

Provides financial compensation to the business when a critical executive or founder is lost.

Buy-and-Sell Structures

Buy-and-Sell Structures Pre-agreed mechanisms funded through insurance to facilitate the orderly transfer of ownership.
