Looking to the Future - Estate & Succession Planning and Asia’s Next Generations
As the founder generations of Asia’s wealthy and uber-wealthy families and family dynasties increasingly seek guidance for wealth and estate transfer to the younger family generations, it is important for the banks and other advisory firms in Asia to understand how to deal with these clients.
Some families bury their heads in the sand, ignoring the need for clearly defined decisions and roles, while others are keen to embrace the process and to put in place the right governance, structures, and direction for the next generations. The patriarchs and matriarchs of Asia’s wealthy and uber-wealthy families are notoriously controlling, many of them preferring to make all decisions unilaterally. This can be difficult to handle, leading to the younger generations not feeling involved in the family businesses until they might suddenly be thrust into the limelight.
In our Digital Dialogue on 10th September - wealth management experts specialising in the field of estate planning and transitioning – will discuss maximising the opportunity in this vital area. With trillions of dollars of wealth due to change hands in the coming few decades – we must carefully navigate these waters in order to help the different generations.
If the wealth management industry wants to best serve its clients, and also to retain the younger generations of wealthy for the future, they should help encourage families to embrace inclusiveness in their business and estate and succession planning for the future. The next generations are usually highly educated, often in long-established Western institutions, which leads to a better understanding of worldly matters, of wealth management issues, and often serves to boost their entrepreneurial hunger as well as enhancing their focus on governance generally, and on sustainability in the family business and indeed in financial investments. The wealth industry in Asia needs to understand and address the key differences between the generations to develop value, trust and a pull-together attitude, and then design products and solutions to suit the different generations.
