Family Offices
Preserve, protect, and prepare your family purpose
A family office is not for every family of high net worth. It’s for those families of ultra-high-net-worth. Those families who believe in their responsibility to proactively and positively contribute to the community around them. Families whose reputations are typically founded on values of fairness, education, stewardship, and philanthropy.
Within the family office, there is a unique structure for wealth preservation, primarily financial and investment strategy, business planning, family governance and education, and philanthropic endeavours. Each aspect requires niche expertise to successfully guide the transition of wealth from one generation to the next. Through our independent, objective advisory team, families successfully navigate the interpersonal, emotional, and educational complexities that present themselves when ultra-high net worth is involved.
Keep the family together
and continue growing your legacy
A framework that allows for open communication is where we start with family office clients. This governance structure is designed around your family vision and the legacy you’re looking to continue. Within this framework, a coordinated and collaborative approach to wealth management allows each generation to have a voice at the table so each generation can succeed.
By designing a clear continuity plan, your family is able to:
- Recognize the history that grew your wealth to where it is today
- Determine what will no longer serve the family’s legacy in the future
- Decide which values, practices, and educational components ensure a successful transition
