Information asymmetry within wealthy families is a phenomenon that has been known for nearly 100 years. The founder almost never proactively shares or updates family members about assets and capital. But when a negative event occurs, it's often too late. Founders hold an information monopoly, lack reliable channels for passing on this knowledge, and the information itself is not structured for effective transit. The problem of information asymmetry within families and the associated capital loss has grown exponentially since the 1990s. By 2024, 48.0% of capital owners believed their families would be unable to "take over" the assets due to a lack of complete information. Another 23.7% of owners were even willing to give up as much as 25% of their entire wealth in exchange for a guarantee that the rest would securely pass to their family.
