The Power of a TIGER 21 Peer Group in Volatile Times

In times of market volatility, global uncertainty, geopolitical shifts, or industry downturns, where do you go to:
- Talk through the challenges and opportunities with ultra-wealthy peers who can offer global perspectives?
- Share intel and analyze what you’re hearing in the marketplace with fellow wealth creators and preservers?
- Discuss your options for taking action or staying the course with exceptionally successful investors and entrepreneurs?
For more than 25 years, Members have turned to their TIGER 21 Group—and the collective intelligence in the TIGER 21 global network of more than 1,600 ultra-high-net-worth peers.
Through monthly Meetings, Members process current events and ripple effects with their personal board of directors, a carefully selected group of 12-15 peer advisors, each with a particular expertise that’s earned them a spot at the table.
Beyond the monthly Meeting, TIGER 21 Members also become part of our unparalleled network of wealth creators and preservers. Through virtual and in-person events and meetups, visitation privileges, and our Members-only social platform, Members engage with global insights, diversity of thought, and fresh perspectives.
With the power of these resources, Members uncover the clarity they need to chart the right path forward with confidence in any economic environment.
A Personal Board of Advisors for All Seasons
Imagine sitting around the table with 12-15 ultra-high-net-worth peers, each of whom has achieved significant success in their area of expertise.
In addition to being wealth creators, these peers are also wealth preservers. They’ve positioned themselves and their families to weather economic storms, ensuring their family’s assets—and their family’s legacy—will last for generations.
That’s what it’s like to be in a monthly TIGER 21 Meeting.
When you join TIGER 21, you’ll meet peers who are no stranger to challenging times. They’ll share the hard-won lessons and unique perspectives they’ve gained during personal and professional struggles, as well as worldwide events like the Global Financial Crisis and the volatility and uncertainty during COVID.
There are people in my Group considerably older than me who have really earned their wisdom. So they’re able to talk about things with a kind of calmness of, ‘I’ve been there and I’ve seen the effects of this even decades later.’ Whether it’s investment choices or the way that they raise their kids, that’s very valuable.
–Evan Bailyn, TIGER 21 Member
Every month, you’ll sit together around the table with your TIGER 21 peers, ready to think through whatever’s happening in the world, in your portfolio, and in your personal life.
As a Group, you’ll work through the challenges that crop up. You’ll also discuss the opportunities inherent in just about any situation, even if they’re not immediately obvious. You’ll share the intelligence you’re hearing from other sources and hold it up to the light, analyzing it through the expert perspectives around the table. Ultimately, you’ll develop the confidence you need to make the next right move.
That’s the power of TIGER 21 collective intelligence. In times of uncertainty, it’s more important than ever.
The Portfolio Defense: Your Opportunity to Learn from Experienced Peers
One of the most powerful ways you’ll leverage the collective intelligence of your TIGER 21 Group is during the annual Portfolio Defense.
When you present your Portfolio Defense, you’ll open up your assets, liabilities, income, and expenses to your Group within the confidential monthly Meeting environment. Guided by the professional facilitation of your TIGER 21 Chair, you’ll lay everything on the table and welcome open and honest feedback from your trusted Group Members.
We have so many people from diverse backgrounds, experiences, areas of expertise, and industries like healthcare, tech, finance, real estate, manufacturing. It enriches the type of conversations we have.”
–Elise Mitchell, TIGER 21 Member-turned-Chair
Your peers will illuminate any blind spots. They’ll also help you develop an action plan to protect, preserve, and grow your wealth, guided by the vision you’ve set for yourself and your family.
“The Portfolio Defense is a profound experience. This is one time in life when you’ll be surrounded by 12-15 geniuses—people who know as much about other topics as you do about the very topic you’re an expert on. They’re going to study your information and focus 100% on helping you live a better life, ” says TIGER 21 Chair Rob Fleischman.
Although finances are often the jumping-off point, Portfolio Defense discussions range broad and deep, touching all aspects of a Member’s life: family, legacy, philanthropy, succession, purpose, meaning, and beyond.
As with everything said in a TIGER 21 Meeting, every Portfolio Defense is completely confidential to the trusted Group Members in the room.
