TRENDS

ARE ASIAN FAMILY OFFICES DEFYING GLOBAL TREND TOWARDS DERISKING?

Asian family offices maintain a high-risk appetite, diverging from global trends and shifting towards riskier assets. With about 44% of assets in public and private equity and 30% in cash and fixed income, this is a much bigger differential than family offices in US, Europe or LatAm. Factors like low interest rates, bets on Chinese recovery, and relatively cheaper markets influence this trend. Singapore shines as a key hub for 59% of Asia's family offices, thanks to proactive regulations and access to diverse regional investments. (CNBC)

ARE FAMILY OFFICES READY? 2024 REGULATIONS RESHAPE INVESTMENT LANDSCAPE

The Corporate Transparency Act (CTA) mandates beneficial ownership reporting, altering financial transparency. Increased gift and estate tax exemptions require attention for wealth transfer. IRS scrutiny on Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs) affects tax strategies. Evolving ESG investment regulations pose challenges, influencing family office investment decisions. (Morgan Lewis)

HOW SHOULD FOUNDERS ENGAGE FAMILLY OFFICES WHEN SEEKING INVESTMENT?

Family offices vary widely, encompassing single-family offices (SFOs) managing individual wealth and multi-family offices (MFOs) handling assets for multiple families. Founders should differentiate between SFOs and MFOs, understand their wealth source, generational management, investment aims, and involvement levels. Asking targeted questions about portfolio structure and investment approaches is crucial when engaging family offices for potential investments. (Sifted)
