The frameworks

A shared language for complex wealth.

The practice works with a set of named frameworks: tools for seeing a situation clearly and deciding what to do. They are introduced here and explored in depth on the Approach page.

I

The Wealth Ladder

Where a wealth holder stands on a recognisable progression determines which structures are timely and which are premature.

II

The Three Profiles

Persistence, Sequencing and Instability: three legal biographies that decide which tools fit and which will fail.

III

The Five Dimensions of Protection

Operating-risk, asset, fiscal, family-governance and continuity: the five dimensions a complete structure must address.

IV

The Complexity Budget

Every structure imposes maintenance. A simple architecture, governed consistently, outlasts an elaborate one left to degrade.

V

The Ninety-Day Absence Test

If the principal decision-maker were unreachable for ninety days, what would break? Each gap is a piece of work.

Notes from the practice.

Shorter perspectives on sovereign architecture: residency, structure, family governance and continuity.

World Wide Wealth, by Matthias A. Will - book cover
The book

World Wide Wealth.

The frameworks, and the reasoning behind them, are set out in full in World Wide Wealth: what sovereign architecture requires, in what order, at what stage of wealth, and the specific failure modes to avoid.

Working together

From reading to a conversation.

If the thinking resonates, the next step is a private conversation about your own situation, before any structure is proposed.
