    FOX Complexity Study: Results and Interpretation
    Publish Date

    FOX recently completed a new study on Complexity and Value. The study centers on the complexity that is reflected in a family’s size, structure and planning, and how that in-turn drives complexity and cost in the office. The study also reveals how the office provides value to the family in managing inherent complexity, mitigating risks, and leveraging opportunities. Attendees got the chance to review and discuss the findings, learned how to interpret their own office results, and explored how to use the study for the benefit of the family and the office.

FOX brings together a panel of experts to explore the implications and potential scenarios for family office executives and key advisors to consider in their planning.

What are the five red flags we need to be aware of, and how does ethical AI address these concerns? These questions and more are addressed.
