Add BT as a preferred source[SINGAPORE] A KPMG report on family businesses and high net worth individuals (HNWIs) around the world argues that the two groups could make compatible business partners.
This is despite family firms ranking HNWIs low on their list of preferred investors, compared to private equity, corporate investors and hedge funds.
