Roxana Colquhoun and Ben Slager are the new co-chairs for TIGER 21’s Vancouver group, the a peer-to-peer learning group for high-net-worth investors in North America announced Tuesday.

Colquhoun has broad experience in addressing the concerns of high-net-worth individuals, particularly in the areas of intergenerational wealth transfer facilitation and financial literacy for early childhood and teens.

In 2007, she co-founded HNW Services Inc., which provides support to high- and ultra-high-net-worth families who wish to outsource their “family office” needs. A Certified Management Accountant, she also spent 10-years advising entrepreneurs and affluent families on financial matters, most recently with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (B.C. Region).

Colquhoun studied at the London School of Economics and the Sauder School of Business (University of British Columbia) where she is a graduate of the Family Enterprise Advisor Program. She is an active member of the Institute of Certified Management Accountants as well as the Canadian Association of Family Enterprise.

Slager is an attorney specializing in private equity, venture capital finance and mergers & acquisitions transactions for privately owned companies, inventors, and venture and angel investors, among other clients.

He is a named partner with Mogan Daniels Slager LLP. He is also chairman of a venture and angel-backed start-up company based in North Vancouver.

Slager has an undergraduate degree from the University of Western Ontario and a law degree from The University of British Columbia.

“Roxana and Ben have complementary skills and knowledge of the high-net-worth community that will be invaluable to the existing Vancouver Members,” says Thane Stenner, TIGER 21’s managing director for Canada, and Founding Member. “With their arrival, we have members who are excited to learn as well as contribute, chairs who are the best in the business, and an elite list of presenters on topics that run the full spectrum of interest to high-net-worth investors.”

Through regular monthly meetings, as well as through exchanges on a private members-only website, TIGER 21 members share their knowledge and experiences relating to finance, investments, managers and advisors. An important part of the curriculum focuses on estate planning, family (particularly issues of wealth and children), health, and issues of communal involvement.
