Frequently Asked Questions
How much wealth justifies a family office?
Scale and complexity matter more than an absolute figure; what counts is the governance need. Where multiple members, businesses and jurisdictions create complexity, a structured family-office approach delivers governance value to families well below the thresholds often quoted in the market.
How does a family office work with business equity?
Trusts plus holding entities centralise ownership while keeping operations separate. This separates the operating businesses from the ownership and succession structure.
What role do trusts play?
Asset protection, tax planning and cross-generational succession isolation. Trusts give legal ownership separation that protects assets, supports tax planning and enables an orderly, well-governed transfer of wealth to the next generation over time.
How do you coordinate onshore and offshore?
We map each jurisdiction’s tax and identity rules and design one coherent architecture. We design one integrated plan across the relevant regimes instead of fragmenting it by location, avoiding the gaps and double exposure that piecemeal structuring creates.
How is privacy protected?
Confidentiality clauses, minimal disclosure and layered authorisation by default. Authorisation is layered so each party only sees what they need, and the same discipline is applied to the structures and records as to the engagement itself.
