FOX Business Advisory Board

Family Office Exchange has formed a Business Advisory Board to provide strategic counsel to CEO Peter Moustakerski on future business opportunities, new growth strategies, member experience, leadership succession, and defining the vision for the future to encompass the evolving needs of families and how they build their enterprises.

Sara Hamilton

Founder and Board Chair of Family Office Exchange, Sara is a recognized visionary in the private wealth community. While a trust officer at Harris Bank in Chicago in the late 1980s, Sara witnessed the emergence of family wealth management as an industry. Hundreds of U.S. families became centi-millionaires overnight through leveraged buyouts that spawned private financial offices commonly called family offices, to manage family assets and educate wealth owners. Sara was the first professional to recognize family offices as a complex market segment in wealth management.
