Experts line up for major Family Office event

Leading figures from family offices in the UK and the Channel Islands are set to appear at a groundbreaking event in November this year.

‘Family Offices: A 21st Century Phenomenon' – organised by businesslife.co, the leading pan-Channel Island business magazine – will see representatives from Jersey, Guernsey and the City address issues at the heart of the family office industry and examine just what is driving that industry right now.

• Nicola Roberts, Private Client Tax Partner, Deloitte LLP, London
• Ian Slack, Director, Bedell Family Office, Jersey

This event is the latest in a series of conferences and forums organised by businesslife.co and will take place at the Pomme D'Or Hotel in St Helier, Jersey, from 8.30am-4pm on Wednesday 27th November.

Breaking with the more traditional model for events of this kind, ‘Family Offices: A 21st Century Phenomenon' will include ‘Lightning' sessions, double-header interviews and panel discussions with a difference. Topics to be covered include:
• What defines today's family office?
• Single vs multi-family offices
• Is there a third way?
• The philanthropic journey
• Managing conflict
• Family Offices and Channel Islands Service Providers

Delegates are guaranteed a thought-provoking experience and are advised to book early as spaces are limited.
