Family Offices

Family Offices

Mason has worked with wealthy private clients since we were founded in 1982.  We offer our expertise in both complex financial planning and institutional-level portfolio management.  We understand the unique needs of wealthy families.  Since 1998 Mason has worked with institutional clients as well.  Our family office practice is a blend of personal wealth management, financial planning and institutional-level investment consulting.  If your family office seeks an expert not just on investments but also financial planning, Mason might be the right choice for your organization.

Mason was founded in 1982, and today our institutional division represents a significant portion of our assets under management.  Our institutional practice includes foundations, endowments, corporate funds and retirement plans and we manage short, intermediate and long-term portfolios.  As we have expanded over the years, we have built a track record of client retention, investment performance and a knowledge base that may be useful to your staff, committee and board.

Is There a “Best” Service Model?
Mason provides a range of services and service models.  We recognize that each committee is unique.  Some committees prefer to maintain the final decision-making authority over every manager hire/fire decision, each buy/sell order and every rebalancing opportunity.  Other committees prefer to focus more on policy and less on implementation.  In either case, Mason has a solution.
