Capital considered in relation to the principal's wider priorities, commitments and long-term direction.
Capital decisions rarely stand alone.
A liquidity event, investment, acquisition, financing decision or other commitment may affect enterprise, control, family priorities, jurisdiction and long-term plans.
The Office considers the capital decision within that wider context.
Capital is most useful when its purpose is clear.
RAINA helps principals consider whether a capital decision supports the wider direction they are building and the other responsibilities they are carrying.
Not every opportunity deserves attention.
An opportunity may be attractive on its own and still be wrong for the wider mandate. The Office considers what the opportunity requires, what it changes and how it fits alongside existing priorities.
Specialist expertise belongs in a wider context.
Where financial, legal, tax or other specialist expertise is required, RAINA works alongside the appropriate advisers while maintaining the wider context of the decision.
