Why is data privacy so important for family offices globally?
I think that family offices nowadays must think very carefully about data protection. But it's not just a legal formality. The Family Offices, I think, need to do some risk assessment, because there's a lot of issues around data protection, and they need to be very prepared. They need to understand how to process the data. It's not just paperwork. I mean, you don't need just to make documents, or pay lawyers for compliance documents, you need to think privacy. You need to understand exactly what you have to do in case of a breach, for example, you need to react promptly.

If we are talking about the credentials of family members for accessing a digital asset, this is more sensitive. I think that the goal is to protect people, the family members across all the generations.
