Abstract
Family offices have increasingly established themselves as wealth management vehicles for wealthy entrepreneurial families in German-speaking countries over the past ten years.

Compared to traditional bank-related institutions, the range of services offered by family offices is characterised by the fact that, in addition to wealth management, they also address the non-financial needs of wealthy entrepreneurial families.
