THIS YEAR’S MODERN AFFLUENCE SUMMIT, HOSTED AT 180 STRAND, MARKED A SEMINAL MOMENT FOR US AS GLOBAL C-SUITE LEADERS, ENTREPRENEURS AND PEOPLE OF INFLUENCE CONVENCED TO DISCUSS THE OPPORTUNITY THAT THE GREAT WEALTH TRANSFER OFFERS SOCIETY.

Over 50% of American wealth is now inherited, according to the Wall Street Journal, with 15% of American adults expecting to receive an inheritance from a parent, spouse, family member or another individual in the next 10 years.
