Family Office

Family offices provide a wide spectrum of services to their clients (the family members) ranging from wealth management to administration of day-to-day financial affairs.   The family office, like any other business, needs to evolve over time to meet emerging challenges in the business environment and to satisfy increased perceptions of “value”.

We work with family offices to help assess and improve their current operations to maximize the value created by the office, and meet the changing expectations of their clients.

Evolving issues for the family office include:

• Focus on intergenerational wealth transfer
• “Training” for the younger generations on fiscal responsibility and appreciation of the family legacy
• Reducing time of accounting close and financial reporting
• Electronic financial reporting rather than paper-based reporting, and the resulting concerns of timeliness, security, specific reports for specific individuals, and availability across a myriad of electronic devices
• Cybersecurity concerns, including family privacy and online-reputation management

As part of our Family Office Operational Review, we conduct interviews and workshops with family members to provide objective, anonymous feedback to the family office regarding areas of potential performance improvement.   This feedback is transformed into actionable steps.
