$90 trillion at stake and “acts of liquidity”: the drama of succession in families

Around $90 trillion accumulated by baby boomers and Generation X is expected to be transferred as inheritance over the next 20 to 30 years. According to UBS, one-fifth of global assets are currently held by people over 75 years old. Marcia Dolores, founder of Mardô Family House Integration, notes that many family businesses make basic mistakes when planning succession, such as seeking a single ideal successor.

She advises considering the various possibilities within a family and creating space for different types of successors, including entrepreneurs, executives, and those who want to manage family wealth. A study by Mardô found that 55% of Generation Z heirs want to participate in their family's business, but with more freedom and a better work-life balance.
