Helping business owners and their families build success stories
Bridging the Gap Between Business and Family
From a long line of family entrepreneurs, this third-generation business owner worked with Richter for all his company’s needs: financial reporting, tax planning, managing stakeholder relations, and more. The company grew considerably over the years, which led the owner to sell part of it. Richter assisted with the business valuation and the transaction. The sale of our client’s business led to a liquidity event of over $300M. The liquidity event made him realize that he would now face a variety of challenges on the personal front, including making sure this liquidity was converted into generational wealth, and managing all the details and advisors involved in the process.
That’s where Richter helped him to bridge the gap between business and family and onboarded him to our Richter Family Office platform. We created a bespoke infrastructure for his family office. Working closely with him to build and actively manage his portfolio, financial affairs, philanthropic projects, real estate assets, family governance, and educate the next generation in order to ensure intergenerational success.
A True Entrepreneur at Heart
This serial entrepreneur came to us after the sale of her latest company. She was referred to us by another one of our clients for our family office services but didn’t know exactly what that entailed in her case. After meeting with her to understand her situation, her story and her goals, we determined that her broad range of assets required the same level of oversight and diligence as a well-run operating business and introduced her to our Richter Family Office platform. We helped her set up and manage her family office: from wealth management, finances and operations, to helping with lifestyle management.
A true entrepreneur at heart, our new client was already looking for her next business venture. We introduced her to our Transaction team on the Richter Consulting platform, to help guide her through her subsequent acquisitions and successful business deals.
