    Thanks to the research Why the Modern Family Office Matters, we know that wealthy families have a huge positive social and economic impact on our nation.

    How has the Myer family built and maintained such a substantial business and philanthropic legacy into its fifth generation? What is the glue that keeps the family together?

  • Episode 3 Wealth 3.0 - The Mindset Shift
    Nov 26 2023

    A bit like the evolution of the interweb, wealth advice has gone through some fairly hefty iterations.

    From a time when it was largely about money and compliance, to approaches that demand a far deeper understanding of family dynamics, as well as a holistic approach to wealth.

    Where we’re at now has been termed Wealth 3.0.

    It involves a pretty big mindset shift - not only for founders and family elders who have been guarding and growing their assets since formation, but also for the advisers who guide them.

    In this third episode of Purpose of Wealth, host Narelle Hooper unpacks developments in the role of family wealth advice, the new skills this is demanding of wealth advisers, and a look ahead to what’s coming - as she sits down with Dr Dennis T Jaffe, co-author of Wealth 3.0: The Future of Family Wealth Advising, and Brad Simmons, partner in the Family Office with Mutual Trust.
