Family Office and Private Wealth Management for Business Owners
Private wealth management becomes more complex as it grows: companies appear in different countries, accounts are opened in multiple banks, and the portfolio expands to include real estate and financial instruments, along with heirs and partners. Without a unified Family Office architecture, the owner sees fragments rather than the whole picture: where the actual value of capital lies, what the tax and compliance risks are, and what will happen to assets in the event of a change in residency or inheritance.
LigLex Family Office combines legal, financial, and compliance expertise in one place. We design the ownership structure for shares, real estate, corporate, and personal assets, taking into account the requirements of Ukraine and selected EU jurisdictions. Simultaneously, we build a tax model: dividends, interest, capital gains, CFC, residency tests, and reporting, ensuring that the tax burden is predictable rather than dependent on the mood of a specific bank or inspector.
A key element is the transparency of the Source of Funds (SoF/SoW) and the KYC profile. We reconstruct the history of capital, link business income to current assets, and prepare a document package that meets the compliance requirements of foreign banks and brokers. This reduces the risk of account freezes, denials of service, and payment reversals.
The next block is investment policy and portfolio. Together with you, we form an IPS: family goals, horizon, currency, acceptable volatility, and restrictions on instruments and countries. Based on this policy, a portfolio is built: banking products, capital markets, alternative investments, and private deals. We do not sell products or take retrocessions; therefore, we focus on the balance of return, risk, taxes, and compliance.
Finally, a Family Office is about processes. We establish regulations for deal approvals, RACI for the family and trusted individuals, and a reporting and audit calendar. The owner receives regular consolidated reporting on assets and liabilities, inheritance and project exit scenarios, as well as a team that “maintains” the structure and supports deals in Ukraine and the EU.
