Dangers for RTO Buyers and Sellers


  • The RTO deal mistakes we see again and again
  • Buying or selling an RTO? Read this first
  • What nobody tells you before you buy or sell an RTO


Buying or selling a Registered Training Organisation isn't like buying or selling an ordinary business — and the deals that look straightforward on paper are often the ones that go sideways.

In this session, David Jepsen (RTO Accountants, a Jack Lawrence Company) walks through the risks that catch buyers, sellers and their advisors off guard. And, everything you hear is drawn from real life!

In this 45-minute practical and direct session session, you'll hear:

  • Why you can't just "buy the registration" — and what you're actually buying instead
  • Why a deal with no one in control of the brokers, solicitors, compliance consultants and accountants quietly loses direction
  • The counterparty stand-off that stalls almost every RTO deal, and how to break it
  • Why signing the contract isn't the finish line — the approvals that can still unravel a "done" deal
  • Two real case studies of deals that went wrong, and practical checklists for buyers and sellers
