Ensuring the right team and preserving the family’s values are just as important as serving the family through a close, personal, family office style relationship. In today’s constantly changing world any movement of the family’s wealth needs to be well-timed, while ensuring their traditional values are observed. Entire asset allocation, education and level of preparedness are particularly important for high net worth entrepreneurial families in the CEE region.
