Hello and welcome to Private Banking Strategies Podcast with Vance Lowe and Seth Hicks. Vance, how are you today?
Vance Lowe 0:44
I'm doing great. Looking forward to a new topic.
Seth Hicks 0:47
We're gonna continue on in implementation of the Hundred Year Family Bank. And one of the things that's important is to set cornerstone meetings and roadmap post in place. And it's important that we set those things out in the beginning, or if you don't know what you're shooting at, you're not going to hit the target, right? Absolutely.
Vance Lowe 1:07
And this goes into play with any successful venture business corporation, even up to the S P five hundred mega companies. They have a structure that they follow. You have to do that in order to be successful. If we break that all the way down to the family level and personal economies, there is still an absolute structure that you have to adhere, you have to find out where you're at, make any adjustments along the way and go forward. So I think all of those issues are critical in order to function.
Seth Hicks 1:42
And they're they become increasingly critical and important as the size of the bank increases and as multiple policies are layered in to the private family bank and you've got matriarchs and patriarchs passing and children taking over the corpus of that wealth. You've got to have clear smart risk framework and protocols, which the the entire system runs on.
Vance Lowe 2:09
Yeah, you do. And you have to prepare. It seems like it's an unfair assumption, but you have to prepare for the unknown risk. Let me give you an example. A family can be building a family legacy, a family bank for 20, 30 years, have multiple policies, everything else, and have one of the spouses decide that ooh there's a lot of money here. I don't love my spouse anymore. I'm gonna take half the assets. And overnight you could have a problem. So setting up how you operate the system, how the system is owned is a critical format, especially If this is going to be multi-generational and we're talking about a hundred year plan here, folks. We're talking about multi-generation, multi-facets, multi-departments, so to speak, to make this all run smooth and easy.
Seth Hicks 3:01
Yeah, and I think we talked about this in prior episodes, like what frameworks apply to the access to capital within a bank. That's gonna depend upon your particular family. It's gonna correlate with your wealth strata. There's gonna be different applications with different families, but the important thing is that they establish a framework and that there are risk allocations and that there are rules for deployment of capital and recapturing that capital and repayment of loans, collateralization of the loans, just like a bank making real estate financing possible for developers. They have a first lien position on that real estate. Well, in family banking, it's the same thing. The bank needs to make sure that they make good loans.
Seth Hicks 3:49
And so that's where the smart risk framework comes into place and the training that's should have been occurring in the family banking system from the beginning of its implementation.
Vance Lowe 4:01
Owning your own debt, owning family debt, owning extended family debt. Is there an advantage to that? Yes, there is an advantage, and because there's an advantage, there's an opportunity for abuse. So that all has to be well thought out. In a family bank, if someone has a crisis, loses a job, gets involved in an accident, and can no longer make that commitment, the family bank is in a situation to take over or alter the loan so that it can accommodate that individual getting back on their feet.
