Cambridge
A partner-led multi-family office, headquartered in Cambridge, working with a limited number of international principals and their families.
What The Office Does
Silk & Vines coordinates the financial affairs of the households we serve. Investments, corporate holdings, governance, consolidated reporting and risk are held together under a single partner who knows the family and answers for the work. External advisers on tax, banking, fiduciary and investment matters are engaged and instructed through us.
Who The Office Is For
Common characteristics include:
Entrepreneurial wealth, often held alongside operating interests
Investment activity across public markets, private funds and direct positions
Corporate and holding structures spanning more than one country
Multiple external advisers, engaged separately over time, whose work benefits from coordination
A preference for a small, senior team
What We Do
We oversee investments and select the managers who run them, administer corporate holdings, produce consolidated reporting, assess risk across the estate and coordinate external advisers.
How We Work
Each principal has one partner accountable for the relationship, with the composition of the team held steady over time.
Representative Work
Offered as an indication of what the work involves and how a family might use the office in practice.
What Sets Us Apart
Where The Office Fits
Most principals arrive with capable providers already in place. Our role is to hold the pieces together: to know what each provider is doing, to instruct on the family's behalf, to test recommendations and to give the principal one senior counterpart to whom any question can be brought.
New relationships arise through introduction and begin with a conversation between the family and a partner.
