Helping Single Family Offices
Combining the benefits of a single family office with greater scale, added skills, and diverse services
Professionally managing the complex affairs of a very wealthy family is challenging and expensive. We know this firsthand. Manchester grew slowly from its origins as a single-family office and began to help non-related families to afford the high costs of experienced investment, financial planning, tax, and accounting professionals. Smaller single-family offices, especially those with less than $500MM of assets to manage, struggle to retain top talent, provide efficient administrative and operational staff, and meet the regulatory responsibilities and technology demands that come with reporting and monitoring investments.
We have assisted several single-family offices that sought our aid to manage costs and upgrade services. We are selective in the families we accept. These families often retain a personal CFO or administrative assistant for specific needs, as well as their own legal and accounting professionals. We provide the rest – the capabilities of a large multi-family office with a team of professionals to meet their other needs. We strive to deliver this at the highest standard and for a cost-effective fee.
