Family Office Services

Would your family benefit from a strategy that helps preserve, grow and transfer the family wealth across generations?
Do you seek support to manage the opportunities and challenges that flow from your family’s wealth?

Overview

Our dedicated Family Office team provides a diverse set of services to several ultra-high-net-worth families. The precise nature of the support varies from one family to the next, but typically involves designing and overseeing a strategy that helps sustain the family wealth across generations.

We use our in-house expertise and engage with other professional advisers to provide a comprehensive array of global solutions. These range from tax advice, asset structuring and investment to a host of non-financial matters, including philanthropy, succession planning and the management of lifestyle assets. We also help establish and maintain family office governance structures, like Trusts, Advisory Boards and Investment Committees.

Our dedicated team of professionals has decades of experience organising family wealth. We aim to be an informed counsel for all family generations. Given our independence, we do not suffer from the short-term profit pressure, excessive bureaucracy and high staff turnover that often plague larger companies or those owned by private equity.

The security of your assets is paramount. Client monies are always held in segregated accounts with major global custodians. This means your assets are not exposed to the creditworthiness of the Bentley Reid Group. In all jurisdictions of operation, our entities are fully authorised and regulated by the relevant local authorities.

At Bentley Reid, we pride ourselves on regular, clear communication. You will be appointed a dedicated Senior Director who, along with their team, is always available to address any questions or concerns you may have. We can tailor formal reports to meet your specific needs, working with other providers to deliver consolidated reporting.
