Startup Funding Espresso Best Practices for Setting Up a Family Office
Best Practices for Setting Up a Family Office Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In setting up a family office consider these best practices: Build an investment strategy that leverages the strengths of the family including their skills, resources and network. Setup a formal diligence process to screen incoming deals in a rigorous manner. Assess the skills and capabilities of the current family members and then decide how to bring in outside skills to augment the group. Set up communication channels and a centralized system for capturing communications, documents, and other information. Look for advisors who are independent and can put the family office first rather than a brokerage or fund network. Document the family office mission statement, values, goals, and investment objectives.\xa0 Facilitate communication with the family members especially around generational issues. Managing a family office takes a special set of skills. These skills may be different from the skills used to create wealth in the first place. Consider these best practices for your family business. \xa0 Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding.
