We are a boutique firm located in Switzerland. Established in 2013 by our two founder-partners with many years of executive level experience in the finance market between them. They had a mutual goal to provide a superior family office experience for individuals and families of high value.
Fast forward to the present and the company has grown and now covers the full gamut of family office services, including investment portfolio management, strategic planning, real estate investments, tax planning, cross generational transition, estate planning, business management services, concierge services and lifestyle management.
We never forget that we carry the fortune of future generations in our capable hands and are here to help that fortune thrive and grow.
We have a diverse investment strategy; in addition to more traditional avenues of investment such as stocks and bonds and real estate holdings, we offer our investors access to new tech startup ventures in such exciting fields as AI, autonomous vehicles, IoT, smart cities, medical technology, agri-tech, and more.

When running a family office cross-generational, engagement is a prerequisite. Every family has its own distinctive way of interacting and a special family culture. Each family member has a unique individual skill and talent set, it's important to make the best of these talents and make the family values and culture the basis for success in future generations.
We all know that in any family things don't always run smoothly, and when the family's wealth and future financial wellbeing are at stake it's vital that family members are involved and share the common goal. Often in the case of family businesses the solution lies in emotional support, instilling shared values and goals and recognizing everyone's validity.
We are here to provide family governance guidance and to help lay the groundwork for cross-generational cooperation, showing everyone that they have a valid point of view and they have a common goal to attain.
At KLND Family Office we know that you expect us to understand your requirements and goals, the level of exposure to risk you are willing and able to accept, and the expected yield on your investments. We are committed to carrying out your wishes and implement them to your satisfaction.
Among the most common exclusive services we offer our clients:
We spend a great deal of time and effort into intimately learning your needs and expectations and translating them into a mutually agreed upon investment strategy. We carry out and monitor your assets performance on your behalf while adhering to this strategy and within the constraints of your capacity for risk. We do all we can to mitigate undue risks, particularly during volatile market conditions.
KLND Family Office regularly hosts scheduled cross-generational meetings with the aim of creating a consolidated and unified investment strategy. We understand that open communication and multi-generational involvement means that more family members identify with mutually agreed strategies and goals, this in turn facilitates effective portfolio management with minimal friction.
KLND Family Office's specialists offer our clients investment advice on various avenues of investment according to their predefined risk capacity profile. Once the client has evaluated our recommendations they make the final decision regarding the composition of their investment portfolio.
We manage our clients' investment portfolios and holdings on their behalf while adhering to the agreed upon investment strategy and profile. Our professionals are here to assist in every capacity and we offer management services not only for financial investments, such as stocks and bonds, but also for property holdings and tangible assets.

One of the fields we are focused on in particular for its attractive investment opportunities is the burgeoning tech sector, we actively seek promising new ventures and help developers take the first steps in turning their ideas into profitable commercial products, thus yielding attractive returns for our investors. In recent years we have invested in a number of exciting startups in the tech sector in such fields as AI, IoT, big data, autonomous vehicles, smart city, and many more.
From our experience estate planning is of vital importance; without a clearly defined succession plan designed for the benefit of the family as a whole the future can be bleak, full of uncertainty or even hostility between family members, often leading to an impasse and an inability to effectively manage the family's holdings and interests. It is far better to delineate a clear cut succession plan taking everyone's needs and the interests of the family as a whole into account. KLND Family Office's estate planning professionals are here to find the best solutions to suit the client's needs.
At KLND Family Office we offer comprehensive tax planning and implementation services, taking into account such issues as tax residency, compliance with international banking rules, estate planning considerations and more. We assess and identify any potential taxation issues and formulate strategies to mitigate them, this while working closely with the family's own tax advisors to provide a unified approach vis-a-vis the authorities and the banking community.
KLND Family Office manages family trusts and foundations on our clients' behalf, in many cases family members serve as company directors and actively work with us to act in the interests of their holdings and interests. We assist families wherever possible, taking a seat on their boards and facilitate proactive governance.
We provide our clients with a wide range of lifestyle and concierge services designed to make life easier and free of worries. KLND Family Office's lifestyle experts are available to help ease our client's busy schedule with our exclusive concierge services. We are available around the clock to assist our clients in a variety of services, such as making arrangements for business trips or family vacations to exclusive destinations, hotel, restaurant and vehicle bookings, household management, arranging VIP access to venues, concerts, cultural institutions and more.
