Thank you so much for joining us today. I'm William Sinclair and I run our U.S. family office practice, and I'm really excited to share our 2024 Global Family Office report with you today and some of our key findings.
00;01;04;14 - 00;01;17;09
Unknown
I'm joined by two of my partners, Alisha Shevlin. Rizzo, who runs our US Family Office Advisory Practice. She works with Families on Family Office Governance, Design, Construction.
00;01;17;11 - 00;01;38;22
Unknown
She also helps work with families on the rising generation and the education around that generation. And along with Elise is my partner, Jamie Lavin Buzzard, who runs our Family Office Investments and advice group. She works with families as they think through their investment policy statements, their investment allocations, benchmarking
00;01;38;22 - 00;01;43;04
Unknown
and helping bring unique opportunities to many of the largest and complex families we work with.
00;01;43;04 - 00;02;01;10
Unknown
And today we're going to talk through some of our key learnings and findings from the report. Now, this report we surveyed 190 families from 48 different geographies around the globe with an average net worth of $1.4 billion.
00;02;01;13 - 00;02;07;15
Unknown
And so we got to why view from different families and what's important to them. And so, Lisa, maybe we can start with
00;02;07;15 - 00;02;12;23
Unknown
what were some of the kind of key highlights or things that we learned or took away from this report? Sure.
00;02;12;23 - 00;02;19;12
Unknown
So our 2024 Global Family Office report gathered information and insights from our clients from around the globe.
00;02;19;15 - 00;02;45;13
Unknown
And we focused on five key areas. One is the size of the family office. How many people are involved? What is a staffing look like? What kind of services are offered in these family offices? Because they vary widely. How are they organized from a governance perspective? Who's involved? How do they make decisions with one another? And then costs and staffing, because those are real concerns for many of our clients who are particularly just getting started in creating family offices.
00;02;45;16 - 00;02;54;14
Unknown
A few key takeaways. You know, not surprisingly, family offices reflect the families that they serve. And so as such, they vary widely
00;02;54;14 - 00;03;08;05
Unknown
in the types of investments they make, the types of services that they provide, how they're organized, where they're spending their time. They really run the gamut. And so we try to identify broad themes that we saw in terms of the investments.
00;03;08;05 - 00;03;33;29
Unknown
Family offices invest in a broad range of asset classes. And as Jamie will speak to later, they are very interested in alternative investments, in particular with about 45% of the average portfolio being allocated to all. In terms of decision making. We looked at how they make decisions across the board, but focused also in on investments where we found that investment decision making remains strongly in the hands of the family principal.
00;03;34;01 - 00;04;00;16
Unknown
We asked also about services that they're provided and where they think that they might need some help or areas of concern. And there were three top themes. The first was cybersecurity. Family offices are very concerned about the potential risk due to cyber fraudsters or other cyber attacks. They're also very focused on family governance. How do we get multiple generations of families, multiple branches of families working with one another?
00;04;00;19 - 00;04;24;18
Unknown
And then family wealth, education. That's another area where they have identified that there's a need and they need additional help. One key stat in the report that I found really shocking because it was such a large percentage of our family office clients who have been subject to a cyber threat about 24%. So that really underscores the real need for protection in the family office world.
00;04;24;21 - 00;04;41;21
Unknown
And then last, we did talk about costs and services and there's rich detail in the report for family offices that have about $1,000,000,000 in assets under supervision. The average operating cost is about $6 million a year. So it's a substantial investment to create a true standalone single family office.
00;04;41;21 - 00;04;44;12
Unknown
So we're going to go a little bit deeper in kind of all these key areas.
00;04;44;12 - 00;04;48;16
Unknown
But why don't we start first with just from an allocation perspective, Jamie? And
00;04;48;16 - 00;04;58;19
Unknown
I think it was interesting to see this number at nearly 50% of the assets in private markets and all term investment. So maybe you can talk through some of the kind of key findings that we had.
00;04;58;19 - 00;05;02;27
Unknown
Absolutely. And before I get into the allocation,
00;05;02;27 - 00;05;07;20
Unknown
what we wanted to know from these family offices were how are you driving that allocation?
00;05;07;23 - 00;05;28;23
Unknown
Do you set long term targets and how do you get there? And what we heard was 55% of the family offices do set long term asset allocation targets to derive returns. The average return target that we heard was 11%. And of course, there's a range there, the low end being 4%. But some family offices setting targets over 20%.
00;05;28;25 - 00;05;59;03
Unknown
And also interesting that there's some dispersion in setting those target. So more family offices internationally set targets about three quarters versus half of the US family offices. But even more interesting is when a US family office set a long term return target, they actually had a higher target. So 44% of the US family offices set a target above 10% versus 21% of the international family offices, setting a target above 10%.
00;05;59;06 - 00;06;29;25
Unknown
And again, not surprising because what we've seen just in the walls of JPMorgan and across the industry is this capital chase into alternative investments. And so that asset allocation decision didn't surprise 44, 45%. We mentioned allocation, average allocation to alternative investments, and that includes the whole gamut. That is private equity, private credit venture, hedge funds, direct deals. There is a large asset allocation to alternatives and that is really driving those higher return targets.
00;06;30;02 - 00;06;57;26
Unknown
Now, we also have not abandoned our core balance of the portfolio. We still see allocations to public equities and fixed income in cash. Of course, the average allocation to public equities was 26%, with 21% of fixed income in cash. So those are very much alive and well. And this also won't surprise you. But as the assets under supervision did increase, as that family office did get larger, the allocation to alternatives also grew with it.
00;06;58;01 - 00;07;14;12
Unknown
And we also saw an interesting trend, obviously, with a continuation of families thinking about where they want to insource versus outsource. And that also is a little bit dependent on the size of the family office from an Asian perspective. So what stood out to you there? Absolutely. And
00;07;14;12 - 00;07;20;07
Unknown
this also plays into, I think, where family offices are finding their ideas and also finding investment opportunities.
00;07;20;07 - 00;07;44;26
Unknown
But for family offices with assets under supervision below $1,000,000,000. We saw greater outsourcing. We saw 40% outsourcing, some form of investment management and the low and high end of that spectrum. 38% of those family offices, between 50 million and 500 million do outsource versus the other end of the spectrum, the family offices, over $1,000,000,000, 20% tend to outsource.
00;07;44;28 - 00;08;13;19
Unknown
And the interesting thing in all of this, though, is there's obviously a range of spectrum of of what and how these family offices are outsourcing. Some family offices, of course, are creating various fixed catered investment teams in-house. Some are supplementing in-house and external. But 80% of those family offices do outsource something within the investment realm. And the top areas that we found the family offices outsource, the first being access to due diligence and managers.
00;08;13;19 - 00;08;40;15
Unknown
Again, that is likely playing very much into that have the alternatives allocation. The next being access to research followed by cost savings. Right Economies of scale. If you don't want to construct that sophisticated investment arm and how you can supplement it with external advisors. Also the ability to benchmark what are the other family offices doing? And finally, access to technology is a really important one.
00;08;40;17 - 00;08;58;25
Unknown
The other thing that we saw was 37% of family offices do utilize external advisors to do a health check on the portfolio to get advice on Is my asset allocation standing the test of time or is my manager selection and due diligence? And that's very much a form of governance.
00;08;58;25 - 00;09;08;11
Unknown
And from a governance perspective, I think we also saw some distinctions both domestically and abroad in terms of the governance structure and who's actually making some of these decisions.
00;09;08;15 - 00;09;33;15
Unknown
Absolutely. The family is very involved. Alisa mentioned at the outset 90% of these family offices reported back that the family is involved in the investment making decision in some way, shape or form. 50% of the family offices said a family principal is the primary decision maker. They may be the CIO or they may not be. And again, there was some dispersion in US versus international.
00;09;33;17 - 00;09;58;05
Unknown
56% of the US family offices said that that family member is the primary decision maker. Much more investment committee focused internationally. So 46% of those family offices said that it investment committees making the decision. But again, remember, 90% of the time a family member is involved. So there is a family member or two or three on those investment committees.
00;09;58;08 - 00;10;13;20
Unknown
And one of the other things that I think stood out, though, as people think about the in-sourcing outsourcing is really just the cost of operations for these family offices. It's continuing to rise. There's a war for talent. And I think that distinction happens more so at the sub billion dollar family office. But at least maybe you could just talk through
00;10;13;20 - 00;10;15;22
Unknown
what we are seeing from a cost perspective.
00;10;15;24 - 00;10;19;29
Unknown
Sure. Absolutely. So not surprisingly, this is a question that we get all the time,
00;10;19;29 - 00;10;38;29
Unknown
particularly with families that are just getting started with building their family offices. You know, typical operating costs can vary, might need facilities. Certainly you're going to need staff. Technology is going to be another cost risk management insurance. And then you're going to need services like accounting, reporting, legal, maybe H.R..
00;10;39;02 - 00;10;58;22
Unknown
So there are a lot of different costs that come into a family office. And the relative costs vary depending on the size of the family office, the number of households that are being served, the value of the assets under supervision, and then the complexity of those assets. And then particularly if the family is doing in-house investments where they're building out large investment teams.
00;10;58;25 - 00;11;17;13
Unknown
So the range really varies. I mentioned before that the cost of running a true single family office, managing substantial wealth of $1,000,000,000 or more is about $6 million annually. And then it varies with smaller family offices, of course, seeing much lower relative cost. But we also saw
00;11;17;13 - 00;11;21;08
Unknown
also a pretty large percentage of, you know, reporting costs in excess of $10 million.
00;11;21;09 - 00;11;22;03
Unknown
Yes, we did.
00;11;22;03 - 00;11;38;28
Unknown
So in in the report, there are a lot of different charts people can refer back to. And you can see the variation between family offices that are small with less than $500 million and a staff of less than five people versus the large, very built out family offices where the costs can vary and go up to $10 million or more.
00;11;39;02 - 00;11;46;16
Unknown
And what did we see in terms of the number of staff by family office size? What kind of stood out to you there? So
00;11;46;16 - 00;12;05;15
Unknown
it was surprising how many family offices at every level of wealth are relatively small. A significant proportion of family offices have less than five people. In fact, 50% of the global family offices that we're working with employ five people or less to manage their balance sheet and their family assets, regardless of the size of the wealth.
00;12;05;16 - 00;12;26;02
Unknown
So that was one thing that really stood out to me. And then also thinking about, you know, who's in these key roles oftentimes were asked who my first hire should be. Should it be a CEO? Should it be a CIO? Do I need a general counsel? And so those are the types of questions that were asked often about staffing.
00;12;26;04 - 00;12;46;23
Unknown
A significant cost driver in in terms of talent is really the investment staff. As Jamie mentioned, there's a real war for talent out there. And so family offices are competing with private equity firms, venture capital firms, to really get the best type of talent to run their family portfolios. So it's a majority of the cost is driven if they're insourcing or bringing in the investment team in-house.
00;12;46;24 - 00;12;55;17
Unknown
Yeah, but, you know, by our estimates, about 60% of the operating costs of the family office is directly tied to staff and compensation and benefits. Got it.
00;12;55;17 - 00;13;03;28
Unknown
And so as we're seeing, this continued in-sourcing outsourcing question,
00;13;03;28 - 00;13;12;15
Unknown
what are some of the other ways that are families, both domestically and internationally, are thinking about pulling in the family, though, into the actual family office?
00;13;12;16 - 00;13;13;21
Unknown
Well, as Jamie said,
00;13;13;21 - 00;13;36;01
Unknown
you know, the families are really engaged in many of the family offices that we're working with, and particularly with the emerging or newer family offices. We do see family members keep playing key roles. It's very common for the family principal to be serving as the CEO. They may also be wearing the head of the chief investment officer as well, and really functioning in both capacities.
00;13;36;06 - 00;13;40;19
Unknown
In the U.S., about 55% of CEOs are actually family members.
00;13;40;19 - 00;13;52;25
Unknown
Oftentimes, the principals sometimes that maybe another member of the family, maybe it's a sibling, maybe it's a child who's leading that family office development and overseeing the management of the activities therein.
00;13;52;25 - 00;13;58;13
Unknown
And and we also saw as we think about the rising generation distinctions of what
00;13;58;25 - 00;14;05;25
Unknown
families are doing, both internationally and here in the United States with how they're engaging the next generation.
00;14;05;28 - 00;14;10;00
Unknown
So maybe you can talk through what really stood out to you from that part of the report. Sure.
00;14;10;00 - 00;14;30;05
Unknown
70% of the family offices that we're working with said that preparing the next generation in succession planning was a key concern and a key objective of their family office. And about two thirds of the families have adopted some sort of a governance approach and an education approach to get their family members ready to take on leadership roles at some point in time.
00;14;30;08 - 00;14;46;19
Unknown
In the U.S., of course, we've been talking about the great wealth transfer for many years, and we estimate that between now and 2045, about $84 trillion of wealth will change hands from the baby boomers to the next generation, primarily millennials, but also Gen X and Gen Z. Say that number again,
00;14;46;19 - 00;14;52;29
Unknown
$84 trillion by some estimates. So it's a lot and it's it's starting to happen.
00;14;53;13 - 00;15;13;12
Unknown
And so we know that that pace is going to accelerate as the years go by. So clients indicate that they recognize the need to prepare their children and grandchildren to take on the responsibility that comes with wealth. And that's a theme we've heard from clients around the globe. But the approaches that they're taking really vary from region to region.
00;15;13;14 - 00;15;28;26
Unknown
In the United States, we find that many of the families that we're working with use philanthropy as a gateway to have these conversations about wealth and to prepare their children and grandchildren, to engage with family wealth and think about what's the purpose, what are the values that the family wants to impart.
00;15;28;26 - 00;15;36;16
Unknown
And the least of these are things like family foundations, donor advised funds as a way to bring the next generation absolutely into the family office?
00;15;36;17 - 00;15;38;00
Unknown
Absolutely. That's exactly
00;15;38;00 - 00;15;39;04
Unknown
different types of
00;15;39;05 - 00;15;59;19
Unknown
programs that family offices and families of great wealth are running to help engage their family members in philanthropy. They might be involved in reviewing grant requests, for example, from a private foundation. They may be talking about shared family values so that they can identify themes that they want to explore in areas of impact.
00;15;59;21 - 00;16;20;18
Unknown
It may be going to tour a facility or an organization where the family has made or is considering making a substantial contribution. So there are a lot of different ways that we're seeing families get their next generation family members engaged in conversations about family wealth and stewardship through philanthropy. Interestingly, we see that much less in the international side.
00;16;20;21 - 00;16;38;24
Unknown
Many of our international clients are using a different measure to get their next generation family members involved. And for the international clients, we're working for. It's often the family business, and that's the gateway for many of the next generation. Conversations about education and engagement with global clients. I think we saw,
00;16;38;24 - 00;16;45;25
Unknown
interestingly, with our international families or those with operating businesses, some of them are actually setting criteria around what it takes to come into that family business, right?
00;16;45;28 - 00;17;11;09
Unknown
Absolutely. They're setting policies in place that, you know, underline what kinds of educational experiences family members should have, whether they should have experiences in employment outside of the family business. Oftentimes, that's very much the case. They're looking for their family members to go out into the world, get educated, learn something from others, perhaps in a related field, but be able to bring back those experiences to the family office and to the family business itself.
00;17;11;09 - 00;17;18;20
Unknown
So some of these families are requiring you might need to go get an MBA or have ten years of work experience outside of the business before coming into the business. That's right.
00;17;18;20 - 00;17;32;15
Unknown
And they also may be providing mentorship opportunities within the family business, opportunities for shadowing older family members or existing executives within the family business so that people can see what's happening and they can tour facilities, they can understand the job.
00;17;32;15 - 00;17;41;16
Unknown
But having that baseline, what are the minimum requirements Before I can come into the family enterprise? That's a that's an approach that a number of families that we're working with are taking. Interesting.
00;17;41;17 - 00;17;52;04
Unknown
And one of the things that I think you said at the beginning and maybe, Jamie, you could go a little deeper on this, was that one in five families have actually been a victim to either identity theft or, you know, a cyber fraud.
00;17;52;07 - 00;17;57;22
Unknown
And what are we doing to try to help combat some of that here to help many of these families? Yeah,
00;17;57;21 - 00;18;14;15
Unknown
it's it's shocking and it's scary. And there's so many interesting things going on in the fast moving technology advancement, whether it be AI, large language, large language models such as chatbots. That is all very exciting, but just as fast.
00;18;14;16 - 00;18;35;17
Unknown
Cybercrime are increasing. And not only did we see a quarter of our family offices be affected by some sort of fraud or breach, 40% also reported that they don't have this cyber protection capability in-house. And so one of the benefits to working here at JPMorgan is we have to, by the very nature of who we are, one of the largest banks in the world,
00;18;35;17 - 00;18;38;29
Unknown
invest a large amount of money to protect ourselves each year.
00;18;39;00 - 00;19;05;01
Unknown
Last year at JPMorgan, we invested $700 million in protections for the firm in cybersecurity. We learned a lot by doing that. So what we seek to do is take our own learnings from protecting JPMorgan to help our families protect themselves. We will come in and do education sessions sometimes that is very technical in helping set up the family office and even the family home to be safer and protect from cyber criminals.
00;19;05;08 - 00;19;27;13
Unknown
Sometimes it's speaking to the next generation children as young as seven, eight, nine, ten years old who are starting to get smartphones and how they can protect themselves. It's a very important thing for families and family offices. And that's one of those areas in economies of scale that we see a lot of family offices needing to supplement because it's just a difficult area to hire in-house.
00;19;27;13 - 00;19;36;18
Unknown
Lisa, anything else or any other takeaways from this report that you wanted to share today? And I know our advisors will be able to go deeper with many of the families they work with, but any other kind of key highlights.
00;19;36;19 - 00;19;44;14
Unknown
So one key highlight that I found was the percentage of families who are trying to shield their next generation family members from knowledge about the family wealth.
00;19;44;17 - 00;20;10;24
Unknown
And that may be a good strategy when children are relatively young. But in today's digitally connected age, where anything can be looked up on the Internet, it's very, very difficult to put that into practice and sustain that from the long term. So although about 20%, 22% of our family members globally indicated that they're trying to protect the family from knowledge about the wealth as a means of engaging the next generation, I don't know that that's sustainable in the long term.
00;20;11;00 - 00;20;13;07
Unknown
Jamie, anything else that you wanted to share?
00;20;13;07 - 00;20;28;16
Unknown
Yeah, just these as these families grow moved to the next generation, family offices look and feel different all around the world. It's one of the best things we do coming in to help supplement, help, partner, help be a sounding board. And we have a lot of fun doing it.
00;20;28;15 - 00;20;48;10
Unknown

I am really excited to share our 2024 Global Family Office Report with you today and some of our key findings.
I'm joined by two of my partners, Elisa Shevlin Rizzo, who runs our US family office advisory practice. She works with families on family office, governance, design, construction. She also helps work with families on the rising generation and the education around that generation.
And

along with Elisa is my partner Jamie Lavin Buzzard, who runs our family office investments and advice group. She works with families as they think through their investment policy statements, their investment allocations, benchmarking, and helping bring unique opportunities to many of the largest and complex families we work with.

(SPEECH)
And I wanted to personally thank all of you that are joining us today because you helped participate in this survey, and we are giving you an early preview. And thanks to you for being a part of this. And this survey and report reflect contributions from 190 families from around the globe, representing 48 different geographies, and the average net worth of the families that responded was $1.4 billion.
So Elisa, maybe we can go through some of the key findings and highlights from the report.
Absolutely.
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, highlights from the report. A list of data points with icons beside them.
(SPEECH)
So the report is very rich in detail, but we gathered information and insights in five key areas. The first is size of family offices. The second is the types of services that they are providing to their family member clients.
Third is how they're governed. How are they making decisions? How are they organizing themselves? We talked a lot about investments with our clients and in the report itself, and then costs and staffing.
And so there's some key highlights here. Maybe you can go a little bit deeper now into the actual key highlights.
Sure. So not surprisingly, family offices really reflect the families that they serve. And so as such, we saw wide variations in the size of the family offices, the number of households that they're serving, the types of things and activities that they're doing in-house versus outsourcing, whether it's investment management, wealth management, overseeing trusts, concierge services, family education, and more.
And there are a couple key themes that jumped out at us. One is that family offices are really organized around investments. We'll talk more about that later with Jamie. But there's a real interest in alternatives, in particular, for our family office clients, and they report, on average, about a 45% allocation of the portfolio to alts.
Second theme that jumped out at us was that family members are engaged in the family office and in decision making and actually running the family office in every way, shape, or form. Particularly around investments, family members are in control of investment decision making, and we'll talk more about that later on, as well.
We asked a lot of questions about the services that are being provided in family office, and there are great detail in the report itself about the different types of services family offices are undertaking and whether they're doing that work in-house or whether they're outsourcing that work to third-party providers.
And we also saw a lot of gaps, too, with some of the family offices as well.
Yeah. We asked where they felt that they needed assistance or where they felt that there was a gap in their existing service model, and there were three key areas that really resonated with clients across the globe.
One was cybersecurity. Around the world, family offices are very concerned about the risk of cyber attack, and so that came through loud and clear, with 40% of our family office clients indicating that cybersecurity was a gap in their service model.
The second area of concern was around family governance. How are the families making decisions? How are we engaging with one another to ensure the perpetuation of the wealth from generation to generation?
That may be with starting a family mission statement or drafting a family constitution. It may be around creating investment committees, distribution committees, what have you. But governance was a key theme where they felt that there was a need and a gap in their existing model.
And then last, family wealth education was another area that families around the globe really indicated a need for further support.
And the one thing here that stood out to me was this next stat, which is kind of unbelievable, how many families-- I think as you highlighted, one of the gaps is cybersecurity, but how many families are actually affected by this issue.
Yes. 24% of the families that we surveyed have been subject to some form of a cyber attack or other fraud breach, and so that really indicates the scope of the issue. And the dollars that could be involved are substantial.
And then also cost was something that you mentioned that we looked at, and so I think, as you can see here, the average cost to operate a family office has continued to go up, as has that war of talent.
Absolutely. And there's a lot of real detail in the report itself, going through costs based on the size of the family office and the assets under supervision. I would say, though, that for a family office with about $1 billion of assets under supervision that has a relatively well built out team, the average operating cost is about $6 million.
But when I say that's the average, they have to understand that there's huge variations in the relative cost profile of family offices. And so that's an average, but it's not necessarily the case for every family.
And so we'll go a little deeper on all of these points, but maybe to start, why don't we start with the allocations that we're seeing within our family office clients? And I think as Elisa said, that rise in private market and alternative investments. So Jamie, maybe you can talk through that.
Absolutely.
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, Global family offices are heavily allocated to alternatives with an average return target in the double digits. A list of three data points. A graph. Three Circular bands with different proportions of the band in different colors. There is a legend that indicates what each color means. The graph is labeled by assets under supervision.
(SPEECH)
And before I get into the allocation, what we wanted to know from these family offices were how are you driving that allocation? Do you set long-term targets, and how do you get there? And what we heard was 55% of the family offices do set long-term asset allocation targets to derive returns.
The
(DESCRIPTION)
Text, Jamie Lavin Buzzard, Head of Family Office Investments and Advice.
(SPEECH)
average return target that we heard was 11%. And of course, there's a range there, the low end being 4%, but some family offices setting targets over 20%. And also interesting that there's some dispersion in setting those targets, so more family offices internationally set targets, about 3/4, versus half of the US family offices.
But even more interesting is when a US family office set a long term return target, they actually had a higher target. So 44% of the US family offices set a target above 10% versus 21% of the international family offices setting a target above 10%.
And again, not surprising because what we've seen, just in the walls of JP Morgan and across the industry, is this capital chase into alternative investments. And so the asset allocation decision didn't surprise. 45%, we mentioned, average allocation to alternative investments.
And that includes the whole gamut. That is private equity, private credit, venture, hedge funds, direct deals. There is a large asset allocation to alternatives, and that is really driving those higher return targets.
Now, we also have not abandoned our core balance of the portfolio. We still see allocations to public equities and to fixed income and cash, of course. The average allocation to public equities was 26%, with 21% to fixed income and cash.
So those are very much alive and well. And this also won't surprise you, but as the assets under supervision did increase as that family office did get larger, the allocation to alternatives also grew with it.
And we also saw an interesting trend, obviously, with continuation of families thinking about where they want to insource versus outsource, and that also is a little bit dependent on the size of the family office from an AUM perspective. So what stood out to you there?
Absolutely. And
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, nearly 40% family offices with less than $1 billion A.U.S. outsource investment management. Three data points with percentages. Text, top five motivations for working with external investment advisors. One, access to due diligence and manager. Two, access to research. Three, cost savings. Four, ability to benchmark family office decisions. Five, technology access.
(SPEECH)
this also plays into where family offices are finding their ideas and also finding investment opportunities. But for family offices with assets under supervision below $1 billion, we saw greater outsourcing.
We saw 40% outsourcing some form of investment management. And the low and high ends of that spectrum, 38% of those family offices between $50 million and $500 million do outsource versus the other end of the spectrum, the family offices over $1 billion, 20% tend to outsource.
And the interesting thing in all of this, though, is there's obviously a range of spectrum of what and how these family offices are outsourcing. Some family offices, of course, are creating very sophisticated investment teams in-house. Some are supplementing in-house and external.
But 80% of those family offices do outsource something within the investment realm. And the top areas that we found the family offices outsource, the first being access to due diligence and managers. Again, that is likely playing very much into that heavy alternatives allocation.
The next being access to research, followed by cost savings, economies of scale. If you don't want to construct that sophisticated investment arm in-house, you can supplement it with external advisors. Also, the ability to benchmark. What are the other family offices doing? And finally, access to technology is a really important one.
The other thing that we saw was 37% of family offices do utilize external advisors to do a health check on the portfolio, to get advice on is my asset allocation standing the test of time, is my manager selection and due diligence, and that's very much a form of governance.
And from a governance perspective, I think we also saw some distinctions, both domestically and abroad, in terms of the governance structure and who's actually making some of these decisions.
Absolutely.
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, investment governance structures differ greatly between US and international family offices. Four data points with percentages.
(SPEECH)
The family is very involved. Elisa mentioned it at the outset. 90% of these family offices reported back that the family is involved in the investment making decision in some way, shape, or form. 50% of these family offices said a family principle is the primary decision maker. They may be the CIO, or they may not be.
And again, there was some dispersion in US versus international. 56% of the US family offices said that family member is the primary decision maker. Much more investment committee focused internationally, so 46% of those family offices said that an investment committee is making the decision.
But again, remember, 90% of the time, a family member is involved, so there is a family member or two or three on those investment committees.
And one of the other things that I think stood out, though, as people to think about the insourcing and outsourcing, is really just the cost of operations for these family offices. It's continuing to rise. There's a war for talent, and I think that distinction happens more so at the sub-billion dollar family office.
But Elisa, maybe you could just talk through what we are seeing from a cost perspective.
Sure.
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, large established family offices spending average of $6 million on annual operating costs. A bar graph labeled operating costs increase as assets under supervision rise. Global overview by assets under supervision. In the vertical access there are categories of amounts of money. In the horizontal axis there are percentages from 0 to 100.
(SPEECH)
Absolutely. So not surprisingly, this is a question that we get all the time, particularly with families that are just getting started with building their family offices. Typical operating costs can vary. Might need facilities. Certainly, you're going to need staff. Technology is going to be another cost. Risk management. Insurance.
And then you're going to need services like accounting, reporting, legal, maybe HR. So there are a lot of different costs that come into a family office, and the relative costs vary depending on the size of the family office, the number of households that are being served, the value of the assets under supervision, and then the complexity of those assets, and then particularly if the family is doing in-house investments where they're building out large investment teams.
So the range really varies. I mentioned before that the cost of running a true single family office managing substantial wealth of $1 billion or more is about $6 million annually. And then it varies with smaller family offices, of course, seeing much lower relative costs.
We also saw a pretty large percentage of reporting costs in excess of $10 million.
Yes, we did. So in the report, there are a lot of different charts people can refer back to, and you can see the variation between family offices that are small, with less than $500 million and a staff of less than five people, versus the large, very built-out family offices, where the costs can vary and go up to $10 million or more.
And what did we see in terms of the number of staff by family office size? What stood out to you there?
So
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, as assets under supervision rise family offices tend to staff up. A bar graph labeled as assets increase so does the number of employees. There are categories of number of employees in the vertical axis and percentages from 0 to 100 in the horizontal axis.
(SPEECH)
it was surprising how many family offices at every level of wealth are relatively small. A significant proportion of family offices have less than five people. In fact, 50% of the global family offices that we're working with employ five people or less to manage their balance sheet and their family assets, regardless of the size of the wealth.
So that was one thing that really stood out to me. And then also thinking about who's in these key roles. Oftentimes, we're asked who my first hire should be. Should it be a CEO? Should it be a CIO? Do I need a general counsel? And so those are the types of questions that we're asked often about staffing.
A
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, increasing professionalization does not necessarily mean that family members are not involved in running the family office. Two pie charts labeled US overview and international overview. Text, who typically fills the CEO position?
(SPEECH)
significant cost driver in terms of talent is really the investment staff. As Jamie mentioned, there's a real war for talent out there, and so family offices are competing with private equity firms, venture capital firms, to really get the best type of talent to run their family portfolios.
So the majority of the cost is driven if they're insourcing or bringing in the investment team in-house.
Yes. By our estimates, about 60% of the operating costs of a family office is directly tied to staff and compensation and benefits.
Got it. And so as we're seeing this continued insourcing-outsourcing question, what are some of the other ways that our families, both domestically and internationally, are thinking about pulling in the family, though, into the actual family office?
Well, as Jamie said, the families are really engaged in many of the family offices that we're working with. And particularly with the emerging or newer family offices, we do see family members playing key roles.
It's very common for the family principal to be serving as a CEO. They may also be wearing the hat of the chief investment officer as well and really functioning in both capacities. In the US, about 55% of CEOs are actually family members.
Oftentimes, the principal. Sometimes it may be another member of the family. Maybe it's a sibling. Maybe it's a child who's leading that family office development and overseeing the management of the activities therein.
And we also saw, as we think about the rising generation, distinctions of what families are doing both internationally and here in the United States with how they're engaging the next generation. So
(DESCRIPTION)
Slide, approaches to preparing the rising generation differ by region. A numbered list that compares percentages of approaches between US and international
(SPEECH)
maybe you can talk through what really stood out to you from that part of the report.
Sure. 70% of the family offices that we're working with said that preparing the next generation and succession planning was a key concern and a key objective of their family office. And about 2/3 of the families have adopted some sort of a governance approach and an education approach to get their family members ready to take on leadership roles at some point in time.
In the US, of course, we've been talking about the great wealth transfer for many years, and we estimate that between now and 2045, about $84 trillion of wealth will change hands from the Baby Boomers to the next generation, primarily Millennials, but also Gen X and Gen Z.
Say that number again.
$84 trillion, by some estimates. So it's a lot, and it's starting to happen. And so we know that pace is going to accelerate as the years go by. So clients indicate that they recognize the need to prepare their children and grandchildren to take on the responsibility that comes with wealth, and that's a theme we've heard from clients around the globe.
But the approaches that they're taking really vary from region to region. In the United States, we find that many of the families that we're working with use philanthropy as a gateway to have these conversations about wealth and to prepare their children and grandchildren to engage with family wealth and think about what's the purpose? What are the values that the family wants to impart?
And Elisa, these are things like family foundations, donor-advised funds, as a way to bring the next generation into the family office.
Absolutely. That's exactly the different types of programs that family offices and families of great wealth are running to help engage their family members in philanthropy. They might be involved in reviewing grant requests, for example, from a private foundation.
They may be talking about shared family values so that they can identify themes that they want to explore in areas of impact. It may be going to tour a facility or an organization where the family has made or is considering making a substantial contribution.
So there are a lot of different ways that we're seeing families get their next generation family members engaged in conversations about family wealth and stewardship through philanthropy. Interestingly, we see that much less in the international side.
Many of our international clients are using a different measure to get their next generation family members involved, and for the international clients we're working for, it's often the family business. And that's the gateway for many of the next generation conversations about education and engagement with our global clients.
I think we saw, interestingly, with our international families or those with operating businesses, some of them are actually setting criteria around what it takes to come into that family business, right?
Absolutely. They're setting policies in place that underline what kinds of educational experiences family members should have, whether they should have experiences in employment outside of the family business.
Oftentimes, that's very much the case. They're looking for their family members to go out into the world, get educated, learn something from others, perhaps in a related field, but be able to bring back those experiences to the family office and to the family business itself.
So some of these families are requiring, you might need to go get an MBA or have 10 years of work experience outside of the business before coming into the business.
That's right. And they also may be providing mentorship opportunities within the family business-- opportunities for shadowing older family members or existing executives within the family business so that people can see what's happening, and they can tour facilities. They can understand the job.
But having that baseline, what are the minimum requirements before I can come into the family enterprise, that's an approach that a number of families that we're working with are taking.
Interesting. And
(DESCRIPTION)
Closes presentation.
(SPEECH)
one of the things that, I think, you said at the beginning, and maybe, Jamie, you could go a little deeper on this, was that 1 in 5 families have actually been a victim to either identity theft or a cyber fraud. And what are we doing to try to help combat some of that here to help many of these families?
Yeah. It's shocking, and it's scary. And there's so many interesting things going on in the fast-moving technology advancement, whether it be AI, large language models such as ChatGPT. That is all very exciting. But just as fast, cyber crimes are increasing.
And not only did we see a quarter of our family offices be affected by some sort of fraud or breach, 40% also reported that they don't have this cyber protection capability in-house. And so one of the benefits to working here at JP Morgan is we have to, by the very nature of who we are, one of the largest banks in the world, invest a large amount of money to protect ourselves each year.
Last year at JPMorgan, we invested $700 million in protections for the firm in cybersecurity. We learn a lot by doing that. So what we seek to do is take our own learnings from protecting JP Morgan to help our families protect themselves.
We will come in and do education sessions. Sometimes, that is very technical in helping set up the family office and even the family home to be safer and protect from cyber criminals. Sometimes it's speaking to the next generation. Children as young as seven, eight, nine, 10 years old who are starting to get smartphones, and how they can protect themselves.
It's a very important thing for our families and family offices, and that's one of those areas and economies of scale that we see a lot of family offices needing to supplement because it's just a difficult area to hire in-house.
Elisa, anything else or any other takeaways from this report that you wanted to share today? And I know our advisors will be able to go deeper with many of the families they work with. But any other key highlights?
So one key highlight that I found was the percentage of families who are trying to shield their next generation family members from knowledge about the family wealth, and that may be a good strategy when children are relatively young.
But in today's digitally connected age where anything can be looked up on the internet, it's very, very difficult to put that into practice and sustain that from the long term. So although about 20%, 22%, of our family members globally indicated that they're trying to protect the family from knowledge about the wealth as a means of engaging the next generation, I don't know that that's sustainable in the long term.
Jamie, anything else that you wanted to share?
Yeah, just these as these families grow, move to the next generation, family offices look and feel different all around the world. It's one of the best things we do, coming in to help supplement, help partner, help be a sounding board, and we have a lot of fun doing it.
Thank you, Jamie. And I want to thank you all for joining us today. We love working with families like yours around the globe and sharing the key insights from a report like this one. And I know our local teams are excited to spend time with you in the coming weeks to go through how some of these issues might most affect you and your family.
I want to thank you again for joining us, and we appreciate your continued trust in JPMorgan.
Thank you for joining us. Prior to making financial or investment decisions, you should speak with a qualified professional on your JP Morgan team. This concludes today's webcast. You may now disconnect.

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.

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.
