About Us | FortCay Family Office Advisory
FortCay Family Office Advisory was founded on the core principles of independence and transparency – allowing us to align completely with clients. As trusted advisors, we partner with clients through a goals-based approach that is not only collaborative but fiercely disciplined.
OUR OFFERING
FortCay is committed to improving alignment in the traditional wealth management model. We recognize that accumulating wealth often invites complexity, and our mission is to simplify our clients’ lives.
Our open-architecture allows us to collaborate with existing trusted partners and advisors – creating a unified point of contact that comprehensively understands your entire life picture. We understand that managing wealth involves navigating multiple data sources, and have solved this by consolidating your assets into a single, user-friendly, platform accessible at any time.
We extend that commitment to our institutional investors as well. For institutions, our team brings years of expertise in collaborating with investment committees to improve governance by crafting mandates and constructing portfolios. We firmly believe that providing institutional clients with the opportunity to access non-traditional investment classes can optimize risk-return characteristics without compromising liquidity.
