A family statute does not only relate to agreements between shareholders, but also captures agreements between all family members working for a family company. In consultation with all family members it needs to be determined how binding the rules are; rules can be treated as guidelines, but it is also possible to make the rules enforceable by imposing sanctions when the rules are not followed. The family stature forms a base for a good cooperation and a solid foundation within the family business.
