Christina Wing on Family Offices in Dubai & Abu Dhabi
Family wealth is surging in the UAE cities of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, according to this Bloomberg article featuring Wingspan founder Christina Wing. The stability, pro-wealth policies, deep capital, and – not least – the promise of secrecy for families are all major selling points. But are there challenges as well? In the article, Christina discusses how the UAE’s status as a global melting pot for the wealthy has the downside of sometimes inhibiting mutual trust. The article also makes clear that money alone doesn’t make a family office successful when there’s a lack of expertise in family office governance and legal issues – a challenge for families not just in UAE but throughout the world.
