In Family Wealth Report, Wes Karger explores how ultra-high-net-worth families are rethinking legacy and impact—using the philanthropic and governance structure of the Buffett family as a springboard for broader lessons on intentional giving, family governance, and thoughtful intergenerational planning.

As we celebrate 20 years of Trust, Impact & Gratitude, TwinFocus is proud to announce our support of Commonwealth Shakespeare Company (CSC) — one of Boston’s most cherished cultural institutions. This milestone year has given us the opportunity to reflect on what matters most: the relationships we’ve built, the communities we’re part of, and the organizations making a lasting difference. CSC embodies all of that. For over 25 years, CSC has brought world-class Shakespeare productions to the Boston Common, completely free of charge — no tickets, no barriers, just extraordinary storytelling under the open sky. Beyond the stage, their education and community engagement programs ensure that the transformative power of theatre reaches students and neighborhoods across Greater Boston.

“Private Credit BDCs: Gradually, Then Suddenly” Introduction Private credit, more precisely large non-listed BDCs, are in the headlines.

From Unipolar to Multipolar: The Investment Implications While we cannot predict an end date to the current conflict in the Middle East, we believe the actions of the US and its “friends” in this war thus far mark the break between the end of a unipolar world and the beginning of a multipolar one. Executive Summary The Macro Shift: The unipolar framework, the 70-year “security-for-loyalty bargain” between the US and the rest of the world, has been undergoing a structural de-rating marked by a long slow simmer of discontent. The Catalyst: We view Operation Epic Fury and the 2026 Hormuz Crisis as the rupture point, confirming that the oft-forecasted multipolar world is finally here. The “Dead Cat Bounce”: Do not mistake the dollar’s recent two-week spike for a return to US exceptionalism. We see this as mechanical reflex of the...

We were thrilled to host this year’s TwinFocus Alpine Summit in beautiful Big Sky, Montana — bringing together clients and friends for a few memorable days in the mountains.
We’re truly grateful that so many of you chose to spend your time with us and be part of this special gathering. The Summit was filled with great conversations, fresh mountain air, and unforgettable runs on the slopes.
