Family offices

The managerial and administrative needs of high-net-worth families can be extensive, ranging from tax and estate planning to managing trusts and foundations. A family office can help meet those needs, tailoring the breadth and depth of its services to a given family requirements. We will advise you on setting up and operating your family office.

Foundations and philanthropic investments

There is a growing desire among individuals and companies to give back to the community. We can help you find the most effective and tax efficient way of doing that. Intelligent structuring of your philanthropic efforts maximises the good that you can do. A foundation, for instance, can be an efficient philanthropic structure and a key part of your broader wealth and business strategy.

Estate planning

Without proper planning, estate and inheritance taxes can significantly reduce the amount of wealth available for future generations. It is important to routinely review your estate and gift plans to address changes in tax laws and to ensure your wishes remain accurately reflected. 

Lifestyle and unique investments

Ownership of yachts and planes, classic cars and works of art bring unique tax issues in many jurisdictions. Tax efficient ownership via limited liability companies, companies, holdCos, trusts or other vehicles should be considered.

 

Succession planning

The longevity of a family business depends on early ongoing succession planning.  Communicating the results of that planning to family members and other key stakeholders in a timely fashion will increase the likelihood that the business and its value will endure well beyond leadership transition. We are looking to help businesses last through generations.

Tax and investment planning

In this atmosphere of prevailing uncertainty and global economic interdependencies, it’s important to have an investment strategy that will keep you progressing steadily while also letting you remain flexible enough to capitalize on new opportunities when they arise.
