UHNW Wealth, Family Offices and Long-Term Structure

In Part One of Karam Singh’s latest double feature episode, Karam explores what it means to be ultra-high-net-worth (UHNW), when family offices become important, and why structure becomes increasingly valuable as wealth, complexity, and long-term decision-making evolve. This episode looks at the considerations facing UHNW individuals and families, including when to explore the establishment of a family office, how to think about governance and structure, and why a virtual family office model may be a practical option for emerging wealth.
