The 10 KPI Dashboard for Family Wealth Oversight
A concise monthly dashboard for tracking liquidity, risk exposure, drawdown, tax impact, and progress versus plan.
Strategic Takeaway
Consistent KPI reporting improves governance quality and shortens the distance between insight and action.
Track Outcome KPIs and Control KPIs
Outcome metrics show what happened; control metrics show whether process quality is improving.
Use Monthly and Quarterly Layers
Monthly views monitor drift and risk, while quarterly reviews evaluate strategic relevance and policy adherence.
Tie KPIs to Decision Triggers
Each key metric should connect to an action threshold, owner, and response timeline.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many KPIs are too many?
If the dashboard cannot be reviewed in 15 minutes, it is likely too broad for decision use.
Should benchmark outperformance be a KPI?
Yes, but it should sit beside risk, tax efficiency, and objective progress metrics.
Who should receive the dashboard?
Primary household decision-makers and relevant advisors responsible for implementation.
