The Family Office Concept
Dating back to America's industrial revolution, the family office came about when families of great net worth created their own private companies through which they managed their substantial assets. These family offices operated on the principles of transparency, respect and objectivity with the intent to provide peace of mind and asset growth and transfer through generations of families. The family offices also served to coordinate the myriad of providers hired by a wealthy family to help them oversee and manage their wealth.
Whose side are they on?
In fact, have you ever wondered if your financial advisor - family office or not - was working in your best interest?
Perhaps they tried to sell you a financial product that they were paid to sell either by their company or the product manufacturer? Or put your assets into funds from which they receive compensation instead of finding the best-in-class solution from outside their own walls?
If your goal is to sustain your assets across multiple generations and see to it that those assets have a vastly positive impact on your family, then…
…it may be time for you to work with a family office that provides solutions from an entirely different perspective…yours.
