Family advisory
Managing family wealth for the long term
Thriving as a wealthy family means addressing important questions.
What’s unique about your family? What’s the purpose of your family's wealth? How do you reach decisions and communicate them? In which way do you pass family values on to the next generation? How can you best manage joint family assets?
We help wealthy individuals and families manage their wealth for the long term. Our global team of experts will help develop and implement a unique and sustainable plan that makes sense for your family.
How it works
How it works
Family governance
We offer a structured approach from advisory to execution services.
We guide you in developing a strategy for you and your family and support you in designing and implementing your bespoke family governance system, including a family constitution, family council and other decision-making governance forums. We do so through a series of thematic workshops or facilitating family meetings.
Family office
We support you with all your questions around organising your wealth professionally, from the design to the implementation of a new family office setup to the review of your current arrangements, taking into account key considerations such as: strategy, scope of activities, location, costs, business model, staffing and governance.
Next generation
We support your wealth transition journey and the next generation members of your family to become future leaders and responsible wealth owners. We do so through educational programs, events and global peer sharing-communities, addressing topics such as financial confidence, financial literacy, family wealth, leadership and personal development, as well as making a positive societal impact.
