Transitioning to a Multi-Family Office to Accelerate Your Growth With Chris Jeppesen



Have you ever had one of your best clients leave because they felt they outgrew you?

If yes, you are not alone! In fact, such high-net-worth clients often leave in search of a turnkey, tethered solution.

In this podcast, Duncan speaks with Chris Jeppesen, chief of advisory practices at First Trust. They talk about why multi-family offices (MFOs) are becoming increasingly relevant, and how this holistic wealth management approach helps advisors accelerate their growth (both personally and professionally).

Duncan and Chris discuss:

  • The ideal number of clients you should serve to elevate your client experience
  • Three questions to help you determine if an MFO model is right for you
  • What it means to build a “brand within a brand” — and how it benefits you
  • The pursuit of self-actualization for today’s advisors
  • And more
