Global Family & Private Investment Offices

We foster long-term relationships by offering an unparalleled combination of service, expertise and capabilities tailored to the needs of our clients.

We know that families and family offices have unique attributes that require a distinctive service model. Their size, complexity, investment horizon and need for advanced technology architecture set them apart from the broader universe of wealth management clients. Our specialized expertise for family offices and cutting edge technology prepare us to serve our multi-faceted family client base including single family offices, high-net-worth individuals and families, private investment companies, family foundations and private trust companies.

At Global Family and Private Investment Office Services (GFO), we deliver this service through our position at the intersection of Northern Trust's core client segments, allowing us to deliver a tailored client experience backed by enterprise-wide support.
