Global Family Office Compensation Benchmark Report

Unlock global insights. Shape local success.

KPMG Global, in collaboration with Agreus Group, has released the 2025 Global Family Office Compensation Benchmark Report. Drawing on data from over 600 survey responses and 20 in-depth interviews with Family Office leaders worldwide, this report provides a unique, data-driven perspective on compensation, operational best practices, and governance in Family Offices.

Why this matters for New Zealand

Family Offices are on the rise in New Zealand, with a growing need for robust frameworks to manage governance, talent, and remuneration. As the sector matures and integrates further with the global economy, benchmarking against international data is essential to attract and retain top talent, especially as demand grows for specialised skills in areas like ESG and digital transformation.

Our New Zealand Foreword highlights local trends and the importance of using independent data to inform remuneration decisions – moving beyond loyalty and guesswork to ensure competitiveness and sustainability.
