Members’ Voluntary Liquidations - A Strategic Tool for Irish Accountants

Introduction

Members’ Voluntary Liquidations (MVLs) can offer substantial tax advantages and create a clear path for succession - but only when carefully timed and properly executed.

This webinar gives accountants the tools to use MVLs strategically, helping clients exit, restructure, or wind down solvent businesses efficiently.

Join expert speaker Tom Murray and learn how to identify when an MVL is the right choice, avoid common pitfalls, and add real value to succession or exit planning conversations.
