12,000+ UK businesses entered MVL in 24-25.

Some of them didn’t need to close.

If you advise SME business owners, you’ll recognise this pattern:

 ➡️ The owner wants out

 ➡️ A trade sale isn’t achievable

 ➡️ Closure feels like the only option

At RetireToday, we work with advisers to rescue viable businesses from unnecessary closure — protecting jobs, preserving founder legacy, and crucially maintaining existing recurring revenue or fee income.

When done properly, this becomes:

 ✔️ A better outcome for the client

 ✔️ Continuity for employees

 ✔️ A stronger, longer-term adviser relationship

If you’re seeing owners stuck at this crossroads, a 30-minute conversation is often enough to decide whether this approach is relevant.
