At Saffery Champness, the value of your family lies far beyond your wealth. We work diligently to understand your individual and collective ambitions.
Our distinctive independent structure allows us to do things differently. Whether providing a full family office service or working in partnership with your existing family or private office, our autonomy allows us to offer completely bespoke services to meet your family’s needs.
We do not shy away from the unique challenges family offices can present, including providing effective solutions when faced with contentious work. Your family will benefit not only from our expertise, but from that of our wider network of specialist service providers.
We have extensive experience and understanding of multi-cultural family offices and the implications on estate matters. This experience includes obtaining a blessing from the Grand Cayman Court for a momentous decision for the distribution of high-value and complex trust assets in accordance with Shari’a Law.
Our understanding of the complex nature of family dynamics, the diversity of motivating factors across generations, and the need for strategic input has earned us a seat at the family table as trusted advisers.
Just as no two families are the same, our role varies by the needs of each client. We are highly experienced in managing multi-jurisdictional and multi-structure portfolios, ensuring each cogs turns seamlessly within intricate mechanisms.
We are specialists in the establishment and management of traditional structures, including trusts and companies, while keeping abreast of how they can be adapted to suit the modern needs of our clients.

As social and environmental responsibility become increasingly more important to our clients, we work in partnership to help them achieve their philanthropic goals. We have expertise in investments within the responsible, sustainable, social and ethical sphere, as well as impact investing, charitable foundations and donations.
Our reporting is as tailored-made as our service offering, on both an individual and consolidated basis. We can carry the increasing burden of financial reporting, leaving you with more time and an assurance that your reporting will meet all legislative requirements.
