This U.S. report, co-authored by the highly acclaimed Prince and Associates, was created during the global recession and investigated the wealth planning habits of ultra-high-net-worth business-owning families.  It found that family business owners can be highly successful in creating and running their current businesses, but are often less successful when it comes to transitioning those companies from one generation to the next and protecting their business and personal wealth.  The study provides a roadmap for families to identify what they need to address and for advisors to better meet the needs of their ultra-affluent clients.

Protecting the Family Fortune is a global study of 242 owners of family businesses with an average worth of $730 million, and is the most comprehensive report of its kind.

The study provides a roadmap for families to identify what they need to address and for advisors to better meet the needs of their ultra-affluent clients.
