Lately, new breed of millionaire heirs have been dabbling with family offices in India . These are entities that exist solely to manage the fortunes of these ultra-rich families. While these offices have been around in some of the world’s biggest financial capitals for a long time now, in India, they are catching on now . What’s really interesting is that these single and multi family offices haven’t just been popping up in big metro cities, they are also gaining popularity in tier 2 cities like Surat, Ludhiana, Lucknow, Coimbatore and the like.
This largely has to do with the growing number of rich people in a lot of smaller cities and towns. A byproduct of this seems to be the rise in family offices. In the last six years alone, the number of family offices in India has shot up from 45 to 300.
Some of these function like a seed-stage venture capital firm and invest money to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.
Tune in.
