Industrialist Gautam Adani is preparing to appoint CEO and auditors for his family office. These auditors will be appointed from top global firms. According to media reports, the purpose behind these appointments is to bring transparency in business. The founders of Adani Group are talking to 2 to 6 big accounting firms to audit the accounts of the family office. The two wealth offices of the Adani family were till now running informally with the help of the CFOs of the group’s firms. The practice of hiring professionals for the purpose of overseeing the wealth office for billionaires is not new, but appointing a global audit firm and introducing transparency is a different matter. This initiative is in contrast to the activities of most family offices, where confidentiality is given priority. However, a representative of the Adani Group refused to comment on this. Some managers will be appointed next month. The family office management will monitor the shareholding of the founders in the Adani Group firms. It will also prepare financial reports with the aim of bringing more transparency. Some professional managers may be appointed next month, while the family office will become fully operational from April 2025. According to media reports, this structure may also change from time to time. Preparations to change the image of the group by increasing transparency
