Chairman
Steve Sokić participated in the elite Private Client Forum Americas 2025 conference in Mexico from March 12-14.
The conference, ‘Shaping the Future of Private Wealth’, brought together a breadth of global industry leaders to examine and debate the most pressing issues facing UHNW clients and their family offices.
As part of a wide-ranging panel discussion about ‘Tailoring Family Wealth Strategies’ focused on jurisdiction selection and attributes, Steve joined three other industry leaders including, Jennifer Jordan Mccall from Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, Alessandro Bavila from Maisto e Associati and Gilberto Arosemena C. from Infante & Pérez Almillano.
Steve set the framework for the jurisdictional selection discussion with a brief overview of common jurisdictional categorizations including the growing preference of ‘mid-shore’ jurisdictions like the US. He then articulated a number of objective and subjective criteria all wrapped up in a balanced scorecard-based framework, a very useful tool in theory and in practice in arriving at reasoned jurisdictional decision.
