Family office structure


blank

The conceptual roots of the family office began in the 6th century when the major-domo (or highest level domestic staff) was a person who would represent, make arrangements for, or take charge of the affairs of a noble family and its wealth as a family manager or administrator. Today, the modern concept and way of running a family office are widely accepted by large and wealthy families around the world.

A family office can be a family company that aggregates family wealth or a company that provides financial services to clients while maintaining the family’s decision-making power. Therefore, after the establishment of the family office, the family (investors, clients) can manage the operation and distribution of the assets held by the family.
