Defined responsibilities

Direct communication

Client-authorized coordination

Ideal fit

When an introduction may be useful

The strongest introductions usually begin with a real decision that needs both specialist advice and a coordinated financial point of view.

01

01

Liquidity and concentrated equity

A founder or executive is approaching a sale, liquidity event, or concentrated-equity decision.

02

02

Multigenerational planning

Estate documents, investments, gifting, and tax planning are being handled separately.

03

03

A major family transition

Retirement, succession, inheritance, or another consequential decision is approaching.

04

04

A fragmented advisory picture

Several advisers are involved, but no one is accountable for connecting the financial decisions.

Defined responsibilities

Connected advice, without crossed responsibilities

The client’s plan is stronger when each professional’s role is explicit and the work is coordinated around the same decisions.
