What is a Family Office?

A family office is a private wealth management advisory firm that serves ultra-high-net-worth individuals (HNW).


Family offices differ from traditional wealth management shops in that they offer a total solution to managing the financial and investment needs of an affluent individual or family.

  • Family offices provide a broad spectrum of private wealth management services to one or a small number of ultra-high-net-worth families.
  • Family offices can provide various kinds of planning, charitable giving advice, concierge services, and other comprehensive services.
  • An important responsibility a family office has is to educate next generations in the handling and management of their wealth.
  • Single-family offices serve one individual and their family, while multi-family offices serve more than one family, and are less expensive due to economies of scale.
  • The need for a family office can be determined by the extent of a family's wealth and the complexity of its life due to that wealth.
