Investing After an Exit
The Situation
Following the sale of a privately held company, a founder held the proceeds in cash while final tax obligations were assessed. A portion of the capital was reserved for personal commitments. The remainder had no formal investment policy. Private opportunities were arriving before allocation limits had been agreed.
How Feld Family Office Responded
Feld Family Office prepared a liquidity schedule separating anticipated payments from capital available for investment. We developed an investment policy around intended use and time horizon. Legal counsel and tax advisors contributed to implementation. Each opportunity could then be assessed against an agreed allocation and holding period.
Reporting Across Multiple Holdings
The Situation
A family held assets through several custodians and investment partnerships. Statements followed different reporting dates. Private holdings used valuation methods that required separate interpretation. Upcoming capital calls made current liquidity especially important.
How Feld Family Office Responded
Feld Family Office assembled the account data within a consistent reporting format. We established common valuation dates where feasible and identified items requiring estimates. Custodian records were reconciled with manager statements. The family received a recurring account of allocation and expected funding requirements.
A New Role After Inheritance
The Situation
A family member inherited interests in several investment entities. The assets introduced unfamiliar responsibilities and decisions. Existing portfolio materials had been prepared for experienced participants. The new holder wanted suitable preparation before taking a more active role.
How Feld Family Office Responded
Feld Family Office created a learning program around investment concepts and fiduciary responsibilities. Current holdings provided practical examples. We prepared the participant before relevant meetings and reviewed decisions afterward. Involvement increased according to the participant’s growing familiarity with the assets.
From Informal Giving to an Operating Program
The Situation
A family had supported charitable organizations over many years. Decisions were made individually, while records were held across separate files. The annual level of giving varied. The family wanted an established budget and a consistent review method.
How Feld Family Office Responded
Feld Family Office helped define areas of interest and assessment criteria. Legal counsel evaluated suitable giving vehicles. We introduced a review calendar and organized the supporting records. Expected grants were incorporated into liquidity planning, giving the program a reliable operating rhythm.
