The issue is the lack of design.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Even well-built wealth can remain exposed<\/h3>\n<p>Many business owners continue operating:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Without a clear succession strategy<\/li>\n<li>Without structures separating control from beneficial ownership<\/li>\n<li>Without considering political, regulatory, or jurisdictional risks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nThat is where vulnerability appears.
