Reported by the UBS Bank (TDIA) has just announced that the dollar lost last year has caused many services companies to manage family property, also known as the family's office, to review the portfolio.

In particular, nearly half of the conclusion that is holding too many assets related to the US$ and 65% thinks that the belief in the money role of the dollar will weaken, leading to a re-evaluating of the level of holding the value of the silver copper.

This trend is helping euro and the Swiss ensemble as preferred alternatives. "Many family offices are considering reducing the level of exposure to the US$ or having a multi-cultural planning," said Benjamin Cavalli, the strategic customer manager of the UBS Global Property Management,

The survey was made in quarter I, with 307 offices managing household property in over 30 markets, the value of pure property per unit averaged $2.7 billion. As a result, 60% had plans to adjust the property distribution over the next 12 months, the highest level ever recorded by the UBS.

The development markets are still the main platform in the portfolio, but the capital line is gradually shifting to stocks at emerging and substrate markets, as well as reducing the weight of holding the property. "For the first time, we noticed that the family offices wanted to increase their presence in Asia - Pacific and a certain degree in Western Europe", said Benjamin Cavalli.

According to him, this trend took place mainly in outside the U.S. family offices but also began to stir up small signs of a non-profit desire from the country's own home offices.

The artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be the area of interest, with 65% of the family offices that have poured money into the entire value chain, including the infrastructure of data, software platforms and semi-selling chip manufacturers.

Despite their concern about the price, they want to maintain or increase the level of contact with AI. "AI continues to be the theme of the shaped investment of this decade", Mr. Azerbaijan Alfalder, Chief of the Global Property Management Solution of UBS, said.

According to the UBS, political geopolitical conflict has raised to the greatest concern, making the family offices not only redistribute the type of holding property but also organizes operations to various legal areas.
