About Us

A Message From the Founder
The need of family offices has become extremely important in this ever-changing world. I recognise that each family has different needs, from investments and lifestyle management to taxes and next-generational planning.
Having all different expertise in-house to serve our members will be mammoth task and very costly. Therefore, instead, we provide external experts from different sectors including tax and estate planning, risk management, objective financial counsel, trusteeship, lifestyle management and we do the connection and coordination between the experts and our members. Eagle Nest is a one stop shop and its team have amassed many years of experience in different fields. However, Eagle Nest do not offer any financial or investment advices nor managing members’ assets or investment. Our pivotal role is mainly facilitators. We refer our members to the right experts after vetting them, making sure they are licensed to carry out the service required by our members. We do our best to find the best solutions for our members.
By placing your trust in us, I pledge to preserve the utmost moral principles and business ethics and maintain the highest code of practice in particular transparency, accountability, and loyalty, always working in your best interest. Keeping a close relationship with you to be your eyes and ears and serve you to my best ability. I look forward to welcoming you as a member of our big family.
Our Team
These are few of our dedicated team. However, there are other who are not listed but still involved in our operations and equally committed to serve our clients’ best interest.
