58% of families interviewed schedule regular family-wide assemblies.

Family Governance

“Having financial wealth with no family or community is not success.”

Consider meeting with your family and any important stakeholders to help define your family’s values, goals and priorities, and ensure you have a suitable framework in place to pursue those goals for generations.


74% of principals say their top motivator for giving is making an impact locally or globally.

Values-Driven Impact Strategies

“When you can, where you can, how you can, you should give back.”

Receiving help from advisors and other experts can be crucial as you build a strategic plan for your philanthropy.


43% of principals say they prefer an active role in their direct investments.

Investments

“It’s about professionalizing the investment approach.”

Because the world of investments is so broad and people can think about it so differently, you should consider having a specialized plan that experts can help create and implement.

 

“Money has a very poor history of building strong families.”

The lessons, real-life examples and honesty of the principals interviewed provide a tremendous amount of detail on a wide array of topics and concerns facing these families. The main overarching theme from these collective insights is the importance they place on being good stewards of wealth and, even more significantly, building a connected family.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR INVESTMENTS AND POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

Conflicts of interest will arise whenever JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or any of its affiliates (together, “J.P. Morgan”) have an actual or perceived economic or other incentive in its management of our clients’ portfolios to act in a way that benefits J.P. Morgan. Conflicts will result, for example (to the extent the following activities are permitted in your account): (1) when J.P. Morgan invests in an investment product, such as a mutual fund, structured product, separately managed account or hedge fund issued or managed by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or an affiliate, such as J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc.; (2) when a J.P. Morgan entity obtains services, including trade execution and trade clearing, from an affiliate; (3) when J.P. Morgan receives payment as a result of purchasing an investment product for a client’s account; or (4) when J.P. Morgan receives payment for providing services (including shareholder servicing, recordkeeping or custody) with respect to investment products purchased for a client’s portfolio. Other conflicts will result because of relationships that J.P. Morgan has with other clients or when J.P. Morgan acts for its own account.

Investment strategies are selected from both J.P. Morgan and third-party asset managers and are subject to a review process by our manager research teams. From this pool of strategies, our portfolio construction teams select those strategies we believe fit our asset allocation goals and forward-looking views in order to meet the portfolio’s investment objective.

As a general matter, we prefer J.P. Morgan managed strategies. We expect the proportion of J.P. Morgan managed strategies will be high (in fact, up to 100 percent) in strategies such as, for example, cash and high-quality fixed income, subject to applicable law and any account-specific considerations.

While our internally managed strategies generally align well with our forward-looking views, and we are familiar with the investment processes as well as the risk and compliance philosophy of the firm, it is important to note that J.P. Morgan receives more overall fees when internally managed strategies are included. We offer the option of choosing to exclude J.P. Morgan managed strategies (other than cash and liquidity products) in certain portfolios.

The Six Circles Funds are U.S.-registered mutual funds managed by J.P. Morgan and sub-advised by third parties. Although considered internally managed strategies, JPMC does not retain a fee for fund management or other fund services.
