Promoting Family Offices

Family
Legacy

Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have long been a critical driving force in Taiwan's economic development. As many SME owners are entering the stage of legacy planning, the development of family office services has become an important task for banks. Therefore, the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) will actively promote the establishment of family office businesses within banks, aiming to support the succession and sustainable development of Taiwan’s SMEs.

Office

In cooperation with private banking initiatives and addressing the needs of high-net-worth clients, the creation of family offices will be guided to provide diversified asset management services, enhancing the functionality of family offices in Taiwan. In the future, various substantial investment incentives will be offered for family offices investing in key government-supported industries, assisting Taiwanese people in managing assets and investing in Taiwan.

As for multi-family offices (MFOs), the business model revolves around providing family office services. By referencing the establishment and licensing standards from Singapore and Hong Kong, they are more akin to investment trust and advisory services or discretionary management services.

  • There are already advisory services for family business succession offered in collaboration with accounting and law firms.
