Overview

Family Wealth Report is excited to announce the launch of the second Family Office Fintech Summit on February 28, 2017 in New York City.

Technology has become a transformational force within financial services and is now central to the wealth management dialogue, particularly in the US, where annual investment is tipped to reach $4.2 billion by 2018. At both ends of the wealth spectrum, institutions are seeking – and achieving – huge gains through technology investment.

Yet the question of where to invest, and how to implement new solutions for optimum impact, remains and for family offices the stakes couldn’t be higher. Clients’ wants and needs are evolving at a startling rate across all segments, but for family offices the need to present truly 21st century wealth management is even more pronounced. Securing the loyalty of the next generation of clients, while also (profitably) tackling the challenges of operational efficiency, data management and security is the weighty task facing family offices’ technology chiefs.

The Family Office Fintech Summit has been designed to present cutting-edge thought leadership on the most pressing technology issues facing single, multi family offices and RIAs serving UHNW clients and to offer actionable intelligence on how to make “solutions” really worthy of the name.

Many of the most influential people and firms in the family office and technology spheres are expected to attend this event, which is exclusively for qualifying members of the Family Wealth Report network and invited guests.

Topics for discussion will include:

  • Maintaining regulatory compliance cost-effectively
  • Innovating for maximum impact on profitability
  • Achieving operational efficiency gains
  • Cybersecurity and privacy challenges
  • Vendor selection and making best-of-breed work
  • Implications of the fiduciary standard on technology
  • Evolving fintech in line with investment trends
  • Emerging technologies and their place in the family office sphere
Who should attend: 
Business leaders, operations, information technology, compliance, client service professionals, relationship managers within SFOs, MFOs, Private Banks and RIAs serving UHNW clients

 

Participants will:

  • Be informed of the latest thinking and best practice in financial technology and data security
  • Raise their awareness about technical and legal compliance with the latest regulations
  • Become acquainted with best practices for operational excellence in family office environment
