Future-Proofing your wealth strategy
In today's increasingly complex global financial ecosystem,owners of successful family business require a comprehensive strategy to manage,protect and grow their wealth,not just for themselves but also for future generations.
Family businessses have a long-term prespective and often think in terms of generations,rather than quarters. For this reason,achieving a smooth and well-managed succession to the next generation of the owning family is critical to ensure the long-term success of the bussiness.
By leveraging their purpose and values,family businesses can create a distinct brand identity that resonates with their customers and differentiates them from their competitors.
Investing your wealth in a manner that aligns with your core values not only generates financial returns but also leads the way in solving societal issues and creates a lasting legacy for future generations.

Issues we frequently see
Some Multi-Family Offices are not able to clearly state individual roles and
responsibilities, particularly global groups, and a very common observation from our
wellness review indicates suboptimal allocation of roles and responsibilities
No clear Family Office strategy, optimising outcomes across Wealth, Impact, Legacy
and Purpose
Limited policies and procedures covering the steps required for taking on different
investor types, some Family Offices do not collect all the documents required for KYC
or professional investor assessment purposes
The valuation of a portfolio company requires a great deal of professional judgement
because market prices are not available. It is important that Family Offices make sure
that they keep records showing how the valuations were derived. If third party service
providers are used, Family Offices need to regularly review the valuation services and
assumptions
Family Offices generally have a very long-term investment horizon, but we do find
that their investment managers have often not kept records which show that they
have carefully considered the investment horizon as part of the suitability
assessment
