Family Capital 450

Methodology

Family Capital chose the 450 from more than 1,000 family investment groups. They were chosen because they are dynamic in their investment choices and are increasingly transparent about these choices. Many family offices weren’t included because they were deemed to be too private in their affairs and as such, it was difficult to track down deals they were involved in. All of the 450 were bona fide single-family offices, single-individual investment offices, or closed multi-family offices. None were looking to raise money from external entities, although many were involved in co-investing with other investors. No publicly listed family investment company has been included.
