Panellist

Paul Pratt is Head of our Funds & Family Office practice.

Paul has experience of working with ultra-high net worth families, their offices, and advisers. He is a second-generation family member of a successful construction company where he heads up the shareholder council and is responsible for the family’s diversification strategy, he has an intrinsic understanding of the challenges families face, and how to successfully navigate the journey from operating business to family office and from family office to enterprise family.

Where relevant, Paul is a strong believer in looking for solutions through the lens of the family dynamic, to help families identify their purpose and why they should stay together and how to align around their shared interests and capital.

Paul works with families across the globe, helping create their family office, investment policy statements, governance, and communication processes, and ran his own deal flow platform connecting families and their family offices for co-investment opportunities.

Paul was previously the international Managing Partner of Family Office Exchange, where he helped families in business develop their office; define their vision, purpose, and mission, and advised on family governance and single-family office best practice. Paul hosts the PKF family gathering dinners and the family office interview series, and is the creator of the family journey interactive planning tool.

PKF Funds and Family Office serves families, their businesses, family offices & funds delivering audit, accounting, transaction advisory, structuring, tax, fund administration and family advisory services.
