Family Office Deal Execution & Due Diligence
Institutional-grade screening, diligence and execution support for family offices doing direct deals.
Image · Family Office Deal Execution & Due DiligenceMost family offices run two- or three-person investment teams against institutional-scale data rooms — two-thirds say diligence time and cost is the hardest part of direct investing, and many who bought outside their expertise are now halting directs altogether. Matchpoint acts as the family office’s deal team: screening curated opportunities, running due diligence, negotiating structure and terms, and overseeing execution through close — so principals commit time only to decisions, not process.
As part of our Alternatives practice, Matchpoint Partners has originated and led $2+ billion of transactions across four continents, and every alternatives mandate is led by a partner, from first call to close.

Family Office Deal Execution & Due Diligence — frequently asked questions
Below roughly USD 250m of direct allocations a full deal team rarely pays for itself; renting institutional capability per deal keeps the economics rational.
We advise and execute for you; where appropriate we also bring co-investors alongside from our network.
Institutional-grade diligence on a mid-size deal commonly runs USD 100–200k; on a USD 10m ticket that is a 1–2% drag, which is why renting execution per deal usually beats building a permanent team below roughly USD 250m of direct allocations.
The documented failure modes are adverse-selected deal flow, under-resourced diligence and buying outside the family’s sector expertise — many offices are now pausing direct programmes for exactly these reasons.
