Welcome to FAM SAM, your independent Multi Family Office in Monaco, since 2018.
We built FAM Monaco for the families who think in decades, not quarters — and for whom excellence is not a result, but a method.
Founded.Born in 2018 under Monaco Law n°1'439, after more than fifty years of combined practice advising ultra-high-net-worth families, we were licensed by the Principality to establish FAM SAM.
Independent.FAM SAM is us — two founding partners and a team who serve clients directly. Owned by no bank or group, we have no products to place and no quarterly target to defend. We answer only to the families we advise.
Anchored.Monaco is home, not an address. We live here, work here, and invest here. We chose the Principality — over other reputable jurisdictions — for something rare: security, a stable and tax-friendly environment, and direct access to a community of more than 140 nationalities, all within a single square mile.
Across banks, jurisdictions and generations.
Beyond the favourable jurisdiction, Monaco offers something rare: a single square mile that holds everything a multi-generational family needs.
Short pieces on Monaco, its regulations and the structures that surround a family's wealth. Signed, dated, and written for readers who prefer substance to volume.
Monaco's residency regime is often described in shorthand: half a million on deposit, a lease, and you are in. The reality is both simpler and more demanding than that.
ReadOne of the most persistent misconceptions about Monaco is that its tax regime leaves the State structurally underfunded. The reality is the opposite — and worth laying out.
ReadWe meet a small number of families each year. If our approach fits yours, we would be glad to talk.
