We handled an Interim-CEO mission for a Family and went above and beyond the Family expectations.

A Family Office is about a Family not about an office. The Family is the heart, the Office is the tool.

Tackle the challenge of Family board member remuneration. Maintain fairness between all members.

Family offices are called patient investors. Volatility is not a threat, it’s an opportunity for them.

The chairman’s role is not to run the company. That’s the CEO’s role. The Chair remains an important role with key responsabilities.

Families that don’t succeed in maintaining Unity will very hardly manage to maintain wealth.

Annual bonuses should never be paid as a percentage of the total family's wealth.

“I don’t pay you to say yes. I pay you to tell me what you think”.

We closed down a business by creating a new one. A great way to demonstrate how we can be creative and preserve people and wealth despite challenging environments.

Don’t fall for the cheapest banker option. Choose the one that will be backing you when times are hard.

To be successful, employees of Family Office must have (or adopt) a butler’s mindset. They serve the Family, not their own interests.

Diversification is not a strategy. It’s a weak choice when one does not want to take decision.
