Indian family offices, MFOs ramp up CXO hiring to build institutional capabilities | Company Business News
Family offices and multi-family offices (MFOs) are hiring far more senior leaders. About 17 of 24 such hires in 2026 went to MFOs, up from a quarter in 2024. They now want CEOs, finance, technology and operations heads, not just investment managers. If you run a family office or advise one, expect tougher competition for good talent and plan hiring early.
Key Statutory Highlights
- About 17 of the 24 senior hires tracked so far in 2026 were for multi-family offices, with the rest for single-family offices.
- MFOs made up roughly 25% of tracked senior appointments in 2024, about 57% in 2025 and around three-fourths in 2026.
- The new roles go beyond portfolio management into governance, technology, risk, people and operations.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you run or advise a family office, map out your leadership needs across governance, technology, risk and operations now, and start talking to experienced candidates early, since competition for senior talent is rising.
