Guiding families in their philanthropic endeavors {PFP Section}

Family office clients have complex planning issues. It's helpful to collaborate with a team of advisors and not feel like you must have all the answers. It is often valuable to begin the engagement by having conversations about what matters most to the family and for their legacy. In this episode of the PFP Section podcast, JG Gassman, CPA/PFS, and Rick Peck have a conversation with family office expert, Steven Bowles, to discuss how best to support these families in their philanthropic desires. They discuss:

• · How to make sure there aren't gaps in the planning strategies being considered
• · Approaches to get clear on how the family views the world and what legacy means to them
• · Questions to ask to align the family goals with the best philanthropic strategies
