PRIVATE WEALTH STRATEGY
Wealth needs structure.
As wealth grows, so do the demands.
What works for EUR 1 million is not necessarily the optimal structure for EUR 10, 50, or 500 million.
With increasing wealth, issues of international structuring, succession, liability, ownership arrangements, governance, liquidity, and long-term asset transfer become increasingly relevant.
This is precisely where my core consulting services come in.
Together with you, I develop a customized overall strategic structure tailored to your personal situation, your assets, and your long-term goals.
WHO IS THIS CONSULTATION FOR?
My private wealth consulting is exclusively aimed at a limited circle of wealthy private individuals, entrepreneurs, and families. I accept a maximum of 4 consultations per month to consistently guarantee high-quality advice.
Suitable for individuals with:
EUR 10 million+ in private assets
up to international asset structures in the billions.
The consultation may be particularly relevant if you:
-
own multiple properties,
-
hold company shares,
-
own international assets,
-
manage significant liquid assets,
-
own multiple companies,
-
maintain international banking relationships,
-
require long-term succession planning,
-
wish to structure your assets across generations,
-
want to review international structures,
-
or wish to fundamentally reorganize your existing asset structure.
YOUR INDIVIDUAL STRUCTURE
No standard solution. No pre-designed organizational chart.
Every asset situation is different.
Therefore, my work does not begin with a specific company or trust.
It begins with you.
First, your existing situation is fully analyzed.
This includes – depending on the individual mandate – for example:
-
Real estate
-
Companies & participations
-
Securities portfolios
-
Bank balances & liquidity
-
International assets
-
Existing companies
-
Financing & liabilities
-
Succession goals
-
Domicile and residency situation
-
Personal and business objectives
Based on this, an individual strategic target structure is developed.
THE CONSULTATION PROCESS (PROCEDURE)
STEP 1
CONFIDENTIAL INITIAL INQUIRY
You submit an individual inquiry via the contact form.
After receiving your inquiry, I will contact you personally.
In a brief initial phone call, we will first clarify whether your asset situation and objectives generally match my consulting services.
The initial consultation is free of charge.
STEP 2
QUALIFICATION & INITIAL ANALYSIS
During the initial phone call, I gain a first overview through targeted questions regarding:
-
your asset size,
-
your current structure,
-
your main assets,
-
your international situation,
-
your objectives,
-
and the consulting needs.
At the end of the conversation, you will receive a clear assessment of whether individual cooperation could be beneficial.
If both parties conclude that cooperation is beneficial, we will schedule the personal consultation appointment.
STEP 3
INDIVIDUAL CONSULTATION FEE
The fee is determined by the scope and size of the assets to be structured.
For strategic consulting, the general rule is:
1.0% OF THE ASSETS TO BE STRUCTURED
corresponding to:
EUR 10,000 PER EUR 1 MILLION
The fee covers the agreed strategic consulting and – depending on the specific scope of the mandate – coordinating support during the implementation of the proposed structure.
Statutory taxes, fees, formation costs, bank charges, minimum capital, trustee costs, as well as fees for external lawyers, tax advisors, and other third-party providers are not part of the consulting fee unless explicitly agreed otherwise.
STEP 4
THE INDIVIDUAL STRATEGY SESSION
After payment of the agreed fee, the individual consultation takes place.
PHASE 1
ASSET ANALYSIS
We will jointly analyze your existing asset situation.
This includes recording the assets, companies, participations, and objectives relevant for strategic structuring.
PHASE 2
DEVELOPMENT OF THE STRUCTURE MODEL
Based on the analysis, I develop an individual structure model.
The planned target structure is presented in the form of a clear organizational chart.
This shows, for example:
-
the individual companies,
-
shareholding relationships,
-
ownership structures,
-
possible trust or foundation components,
-
asset allocations,
-
international structural components,
-
as well as the relationships between the individual entities.
PHASE 3
EXPLANATION & ROADMAP
The developed organizational chart will be reviewed together in detail.
You will receive a clear explanation of the function of each structural component and how they are intended to interact.
Within approximately 5–9 days after the consultation, you will receive your individual written roadmap as a PDF.
This serves as a strategic working basis for you and your existing professional advisors.
STEP 5
ROADMAP FOR YOUR LAWYERS & TAX ADVISORS
Your existing advisor structure remains a central component of the implementation.
You will receive a written roadmap that you can provide to your lawyers, tax advisors, and other professional advisors for review and implementation.
The roadmap describes, among other things:
-
the planned structure,
-
the proposed structural components,
-
their strategic function,
-
the proposed next steps,
-
as well as the ongoing organizational requirements.
The specific legal and tax implementation is carried out by the respective competent and authorized specialist advisors.
STEP 6
IMPLEMENTATION & COORDINATION
Upon request, I will then accompany the implementation phase.
This may include – depending on the mandate – coordinating support for the application and establishment of the proposed:
companies
trust structures
financial vehicles
bank accounts
international business relationships
The respective formations, registrations, and account openings are carried out by specialized partners and the competent authorities in the respective jurisdictions.
The duration of the overall process depends heavily on the complexity of the individual structure, the jurisdictions involved, and the respective KYC/compliance requirements.
As a guideline, approximately 3–4 months can be expected.
STEP 7
HANDOVER TO YOUR ADVISORS
After completion of the implementation phase, a structured handover to your existing lawyers, tax advisors, and other advisors, if applicable, takes place.
If desired, a final joint meeting will be held for this purpose.
You will also receive an overview of the planned ongoing administrative requirements and – as far as known – the expected ongoing costs of the respective structural components.
