家族辦公室熱潮:東西方差異對比

《家族辦公室熱潮:東西方差異對比》由星展私人銀行委託經濟學人智庫撰寫。

家族辦公室指專為超高淨值資產人士 (UHNWI) 提供個人投資服務的公司,在全球金融市場中的影響力日漸增強。管理顧問安永 (EY) 的調查數據顯示,自2008 年以來,家族辦公室的數量增加了10 倍,目前已達到約10,000 間。

隨着全球億萬富翁人數持續增加,與他們相關的家族辦公室數目、資產及影響力也隨之增加。家族辦公室源自西方富有的英美商人,但過去連續 5 年,卻由亞洲榮膺全球最富裕地區。

本報告以東方(泛指亞洲地區)及西方(歐洲及北美)的家族辦公室為研究對象,對比各自的運作模式,並探討文化、家族及財富創造在其結構和管理方面所擔當的角色。

這項研究建基於廣泛的案例研究,以及以家族辦公室擁有者、經理及顧問作為對象的訪談。我們感謝以下受訪者撥冗參與:

Warburtons is the UK’s leading independent baker and one of the UK’s top five grocery brands. The roots of the business go back to 1876, when Thomas and Ellen Warburton opened their first grocery shop, later a local bakery, in Bolton. Members of the

Warburton family have run the business for most of its 130-year history, as the business has extended its reach across the UK. Jonathan Warburton, one of the fifth generation of the family, is current Chairman, and his cousin Brett is Director of the business.
