家族办公室热潮:东西方对比

《家族办公室热潮:东西方对比》研究报告由星展私人银行委托经济学人智库撰写。

家族办公室是指为超高净值人士 (UHNWI) 服务的私人投资公司,在全球金融市场中日益壮大。咨询公司安永 (EY) 的数据显示,家族办公室的数量自2008 年以来增加了 10 倍,目前约有 10,000 家。

随着全球亿万富豪越来越多,家族办公室的数量、资产以及影响力也会不断扩大。家族办公室的传统始于西方,由富有的英美商人开启。然而,亚洲在过去五年蝉联全球最富裕地区。

本报告旨在研究东方(亚洲地区)和西方(欧洲和北美)家族办公室行事的差异,探讨文化、家族和财富创造如何影响家族办公室的结构和管理。

研究的基础包括广泛的案头调研,以及对家族办公室的所有者、经理和顾问进行深入访谈。我们感谢以下受访者的宝贵时间和见解:
