Course Overview

The audit trail behind multi-generational family portfolios matters as much as the decision itself. In finance the difference between a healthy position on the wider financial and banking practice agenda and a dangerous one is often a single assumption. Plans for this strand of financial and banking practice often fail at the handover point between functions. Across sectors, teams that rehearse multi-generational family portfolios outperform teams that only plan it. The programme converts this area of financial and banking practice from an area of general awareness into a set of repeatable practices. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of the financial and banking practice discipline and prepares them for it. The outcome is a practitioner who can hold a position on multi-generational family portfolios and revise it on evidence. The level assumes working familiarity with the business line but no prior formal training in this aspect of financial and banking practice. Work concludes with a self-assessment of the financial and banking practice capability that participants can repeat annually.
