The PKF Funds and Family Office service, which was launched in New York in 2011, has extended its presence to London, Edinburgh and Dublin. The expansion gives PKF’s Family Office and Investment Fund clients access to expertise across some of the world’s leading financial centers. The team already maintains offices in the United States, Geneva, Amsterdam and Luxembourg.
The business has appointed Paul Pratt, formerly with Trusted Family, to help launch the offer in the United Kingdom and Ireland. Pratt brings more than 15 years’ experience working with families and single-family offices dealing with governance, administration, reporting and more.
PKF Funds and Family Office serves ultra-high-net-worth families, family offices and private funds including private equity, venture capital, hedge, infrastructure and real estate. It offers a wide range of integrated services to clients including family office services, investment fund administration, accounting and custom reporting, bill payment and lifestyle support, audit and tax planning, and compliance. In addition, it provides a broad range of advisory services including wealth transfer, succession and philanthropic planning together with best practices reviews, transaction advisory, valuation, due diligence, forensic and litigation services.
The expansion into the United Kingdom and Ireland is being driven by PKF O’Connor Davies, which is based in New York, London-based PKF Littlejohn, PKF O’Connor Leddy & Holmes in Dublin and PKF Johnston Carmichael, which has offices across Scotland.
In the United States, the team currently provides full family office and investment administration services to various families and funds, with combined assets of over $30 billion.
