Our Story

A premier resource for Family Offices, Family Businesses and stakeholders.

The association strives to provide resources, education and support to local and international Family Offices, fostering collaboration and innovation through an exclusive global ecosystem.

Mission

Empowering the family office sector — across generations and across borders.

Our overarching mission is to empower the family office sector with industry best practices, facilitating networking opportunities and enabling knowledge transfer across generations to address institutional challenges that matter.

We believe the strongest families are built on a foundation of values — and the strongest family offices are built on a foundation of community. EFOA exists to steward both.
