Building a Legacy: Family Office Wealth Management

Wealth management for high-net-worth families has grown increasingly complex. For some families, the responsibility of wealth management has shifted to younger generations who have less experience investing. For other families, the early liquidation of businesses has created uncertainty for mid-career professionals who face new investments or major life decisions. In this program, you will gain an in-depth understanding of best practices in family wealth management; explore the governance, structure, and investment challenges that are unique to families; and discover new approaches for managing and preserving family wealth.

Who Should Attend

• Executives from a family office or wealth management office
• Family business owners, beneficial owners, and other family members, including children of the business leaders and their spouses/partners
• Particularly appropriate for chief investment officers, chief executive officers, investment managers, or top family business leaders
• Also appropriate for family members with a range of financial acumen—from expert to novice
• Not appropriate for investors who are not representing a family's interests

Attendance by multiple company representatives or family members is encouraged but not required.

Chief executives and family members involved in the company and looking to expand business strengths and strategies are encouraged to explore our program, Families in Business.
