Forbes: Revolutionizing Family Office Investments: Synergy, Cross-Pollination And Experimental Due Diligence
Hangar 75 CEO Ian Wilding's recent article ‘Revolutionizing Family Office Investments: Synergy, Cross-Pollination And Experimental Due Diligence’ was published on Forbes.com.
Summary of Article
In his latest Forbes article, Ian Wilding, CEO of Hangar 75, discusses the evolution of family office investment strategies. Traditionally, family offices have focused on preserving and growing generational wealth through a holistic approach that integrates governance, operations, and wealth management. However, Wilding suggests that this model has limitations, particularly in its isolated approach to investments.
To address these limitations, Wilding introduces the concept of "synergistic wealth," which redefines traditional investment strategies by emphasizing interconnectedness and cross-pollination among different investment sectors. This approach not only enhances the due diligence process but also facilitates innovative deal sourcing and rigorous experimental validation of investment opportunities.
Synergistic wealth encourages family offices to view investments as parts of a broader ecosystem, focusing on how they can contribute to and benefit from other assets. This strategy involves proactive deal sourcing, agile due diligence, and experimental validation, which tests investment theories in real-world scenarios to ensure their practical applicability and long-term sustainability.
Wilding provides actionable steps for family offices looking to adopt this new investment paradigm, including adopting a holistic framework, evaluating strategic synergy, involving the team in the due diligence process, cultivating agility in investment validation, and committing to ongoing education and adaptation.
Conclusion: By embracing this transformative approach, family offices can anticipate a future rich with innovation, practical success, and robust cross-vertical synergies, significantly enhancing their investment strategies and outcomes.
