Multi Family Office Database: Verified MFO Contacts in Excel (2026)
A multi family office database lists firms that manage investments and wealth for several families, with each firm's website, investment focus, location and the decision-makers who run its investment process. Because one multi family office can allocate on behalf of many client families, a good multi family office database helps fund managers, sponsors and service providers reach a larger pool of capital through fewer conversations. This page explains how MFOs differ from single family offices, what an MFO database must contain, how to filter MFOs in Excel, and how to test a file before you buy.
Which multi family office database fits you
Every Active Family Offices file includes a Type column, so you can isolate multi family offices in any of them:
- Raising in the United States: the Full USA Database ($2,500), with decision-makers, personal LinkedIn profiles and verified work emails.
- Raising in Europe: the Full Europe Database ($1,500), with decision-maker names and positions plus company email and phone (GDPR compliant).
- Raising across several regions: the Full Worldwide Database ($5,000), which covers the USA, Europe and the rest of the world in one file.
- Testing before you buy: the free sample, 40 family offices in the same Excel columns as the paid files.
Multi family office vs single family office
A multi family office (MFO) serves several families. It typically has an investment committee, written allocation policies and a research team, and it often invests in outside funds and co-investments on behalf of its clients.
A single family office (SFO) serves one family and invests that family's capital directly. Decisions are often faster and more personal, and the scope is limited to one family's appetite.
Read single family office vs multi family office for the full comparison, or see our single family office database guide if SFOs fit your raise better.
Why buyers want multi family offices
- Fund managers raising LPs: MFOs build portfolios of outside managers for their clients, so a fund that fits their process can reach several families at once. See the guide for emerging fund managers.
- Real estate sponsors: many MFOs place client capital into private real estate deals and funds. See the guide for real estate sponsors.
- Service providers: MFOs buy technology, reporting, tax, legal and administration services at scale. See the guide for service providers.
- Founders raising a round: some MFOs run direct or co-investment programs for clients. See the guide for startup founders.
- Business owners selling a company: an MFO may introduce a deal to several client families that buy private businesses.
What a multi family office database must contain
- A verified website or LinkedIn company page for every firm.
- A clear type label that separates MFOs from single family offices and from family-led private investment firms.
- Named decision-makers with titles, such as CIO, head of investments or head of private markets.
- Verified work emails where legally allowed. Our family office email list guide covers verification and compliance.
- Investment domains and a description showing what the firm allocates to.
- Location by city and state or country.
- Deal submission channel, since many MFOs route manager and deal inquiries through a set inbox or form.
- AUM with its source where disclosed, plus a team size band.
- A current version date, an accuracy guarantee and a format you own.
How to filter multi family offices in the Excel file
- Turn on filters for the header row.
- In the Type column, select Multi family office. Add Family led private investment firm if you also want family-backed firms with an institutional process.
- Filter Primary Investment Domain or Secondary Investment Domain for your strategy.
- Filter Country, State or City to plan meetings by location.
- Filter Team size to separate boutique firms from larger platforms.
- Check the Deal submission column, then save the view as a new sheet for your CRM.
How to evaluate a multi family office database
- Get a sample in the same columns as the paid file.
- Check a random 20 rows. Confirm each firm serves multiple families and invests for them, as opposed to pure wealth planning.
- Check decision-maker currency. MFO investment teams change often, so confirm five people on LinkedIn.
- Bounce-check the emails with an email verifier.
How the Active Family Offices databases fit
Our files are one-time Excel purchases that you keep, with no seats or logins. Every listing is reviewed and verified by a team of humans and has a verified website or LinkedIn company page. Each firm lists up to three top decision-makers with titles, plus company email and phone, deal submission channel, AUM with source where disclosed, team size band and year founded. For the USA and other permitted countries, decision-makers include a personal LinkedIn profile and a verified personal work email. Every file carries a guarantee of 95% accuracy or higher, or your money back (critical errors are defined on the product page, and refund requests are made within 7 days).
Limits to know
- No file covers every multi family office. Our files include firms we could verify.
- Europe has names and positions only. Many MFOs are based in Europe, and the Full Europe Database lists decision-maker names and positions with company email and phone, without personal emails. Israel, Canada, Japan and Brazil follow the same rule.
- One-time snapshot. You download the current version, with no updates included.
FAQ
What is a multi family office?
A multi family office is a firm that manages investments and wealth for several families. It usually runs a formal investment process and often allocates to outside funds and deals for its clients.
Why target multi family offices instead of single family offices?
One multi family office can allocate on behalf of many families, so a single relationship can reach more capital. Single family offices often decide faster. Many raisers contact both types.
Is there a free multi family office database?
Free directories exist, but they rarely include verified decision-makers or emails. Our free sample includes 40 family offices in Excel with the Type column, and our guide to free family office databases reviews other free sources.
Do multi family offices invest in emerging managers?
Some do, as part of their manager research process. Check the investment domain and description columns, and contact the CIO or head of investments with a short, specific note.
Does the database include personal emails for multi family offices?
For the USA and other permitted countries, yes: verified personal work emails for up to three decision-makers per firm. For Europe, Israel, Canada, Japan and Brazil, you get names, positions and company contact details.
Are updates included after purchase?
No. Each purchase is a one-time download of the current version.
