Preparing the next generation to inherit responsibly

Substantial wealth raises questions that no spreadsheet captures. When does the next generation become part of the planning conversation? How are beneficiaries prepared for an inheritance that will materially change their circumstances? How does a family hold its wealth together over decades rather than dilute it over generations?

For some of our clients, these questions matter as much as the technical planning. For others, they don’t and we are equally happy to leave them out of scope where that is the right answer.

Who We Are

There is no single template. Where family governance work is part of an engagement, it can include some or all of:

  • Structured family meetings, sometimes facilitated, to establish shared expectations and decisions about the wealth.

  • Wealth education sessions for adult children, calibrated to their existing financial sophistication.

  • Drafting of family governance frameworks, written statements of values, principles, and decision-making processes for families who want a shared reference document.

  • Coordination with estate planners and trustees so the technical structures and the family conversations remain aligned.

The work is genuinely individual. For some families, it is a single conversation; for others, it is a multi-year programme.
