Vikash Gupta, CEO and co-founder of VAR Capital, recently spoke to AGBI – Arabian Gulf Business Insight about the thriving family office space in the UAE. He emphasized the country’s strong foundation, clear regulations, and attractive tax base as key factors drawing European ultra-high-net-worth families to the region.

According to Vikash Gupta, the UAE’s stability and faith in its system are driving this relocation trend. Reports from deVere Group and DIFC highlight rising jurisdictional risk and a massive $124 trillion intergenerational wealth transfer reshaping global capital flows.

As European family offices follow their principals to the Gulf, Gupta discussed nuances of wealth transition, regulation, and differences between single and multi-family offices. The region’s infrastructure and governance frameworks are evolving to keep pace with growing demand.
