We’re proud to announce that Ian Petts will be speaking at the Superyacht Summit Türkiye, held 11–12 November in Istanbul.

Ian’s session will dive deep into the strategic frameworks that underpin successful superyacht ownership and wealth preservation. He’ll cover everything from trusts, foundations, securitisation trends, anonymity, ringfencing, and the importance of appointing experienced directors, not just to protect wealth, but to ensure long term succession planning.

He will provide expect insights on the roles of protectors and family advisors, how to leverage assets effectively, and why education and early business exposure for the next generation is key. Ian will explore how legacy is built through real world experience before heirs return to the family fold.

He’ll also address the main threats to wealth; inflation, depreciation, divorce, death, and catastrophic events like war, and how strategic planning can mitigate these risks.

And yes, he’ll be quoting Onassis: “95% of successful ship owning is careful accounting.”

This promises to be a standout session for family offices, advisors, and anyone involved in high value asset planning.
