Family council
Shape the future – together
By managing the assets, we pave the way for the major decisions within the family council or investment advisory committee.
Your family strategy consists of different aspects such as the family’s various objectives, values, and rules. With a family constitution this strategy can be developed over time. Discussions about finding the adequate family constitution can be quite controversial but the final outcome should be carried by a consensus among the family members. Acting as mediator in these discussions we ensure that there remain no misunderstandings. This enables the family to implement the decisions as quickly as possible and based on consensus.
‘The family constitution is reflected in the institutionalisation of a family council. Regular meetings facilitate an active communication and organisational structure within the family. The family office has a central role and responsibility to mediate and to ensure the exchange of information.'
Thomas Borghardt,
Member of the Board of Directors
