Los banqueros secretos de las estrellas de cine
Scarlett Johansson, Zendaya o Tom Holland cobran millones por cada una de sus películas, una fortuna que administran sus 'business managers' lejos de las grandes gestoras de patrimonio de Wall Street. Leer
In the world of Hollywood finance, business managers play a crucial role in managing the wealth of celebrities. These professionals handle everything from income management and tax planning to investment strategies and asset allocation. Their expertise is essential for navigating the unpredictable nature of an actor's career, which can span decades of highs and lows.
One such business manager is Steven Shapiro, who works with Tom Holland and Zendaya among others at Summit Business Management. Another is Harley Neuman of Neuman + Associates, who advises a diverse clientele including Scarlett Johansson, Zoe Saldaña, and Ellen DeGeneres. These managers operate discreetly behind the scenes, often handling portfolios worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
Business managers like Shapiro and Neuman charge a 5% fee on their clients' earnings, but their true value lies in their expertise. They need to understand not just the financial markets, but also the unique challenges of the entertainment industry. The success of a business manager can hinge on a star's ability to earn millions in a short period, followed by long periods of relative inactivity.
Despite the abundance of specialized boutique firms and independent professionals in this field, there are also large players like NKSFB, a renowned entity that manages the wealth of many actors. Their approach emphasizes conservative financial planning and caution, steering clients away from speculative investments.
