Episode 1 What is a Family Office?

Mutual Trust and the University of Adelaide Business School have recently released ground breaking research Why a Modern Family Office Matters. It’s the first of its kind in Australia to reveal the contributions our wealthiest families make to the nation.  You probably know that lasting impact depends on families going the distance, protecting and growing their wealth over generations.  But that's not a guarantee, and more often than not family wealth transfers go wrong. This is where the value of a Family Office comes in.  In this first episode of Purpose of Wealth, you’ll learn some surprising facts about the impact of family wealth in Australia, and bust open some secrets on how successful families do it, as host Narelle Hooper speaks with Associate Professor, Dr. Christopher Graves, director of the Family Business Education and Research Group at the University of Adelaide Business School and Jeff Steiner, Mutual Trust’s head of Family Office. Want to know more about the ground breaking research Why the Modern Family Office Matters?
