Global mobility has added complexity to wealth management.
Family offices are managing principals who live, work, and invest across multiple jurisdictions, and in globally mobile lives, every day counts. Miscounting or missing days can trigger double taxation, penalties, or reputational risk.
Yet many family offices remain exposed:
-
~75% are under- or only moderately invested in the operational technology needed to manage compliance risks effectively (Deloitte, 2024).
-
Penalties on wealthy individuals reached £5.8 million in 2023-24 and the underlying at-risk tax is much higher. (HMRC, 2024)
-
34% cite regulatory compliance as one of their top three challenges (Campden Wealth, 2023).
-
Only 18% feel fully prepared to meet the evidentiary standards now demanded by tax authorities (Knight Frank, 2024).
Manual spreadsheets and retrospective record-keeping simply aren’t enough in an age of automatic information exchange and heightened regulatory scrutiny.
