JPMorgan Shares Edge Higher as Family Offices Flirt With AI Investments
JPMorgan Chase & Co. saw modest gains Monday as a global survey revealed artificial intelligence has become a priority for 65% of family offices. The enthusiasm, however, isn’t matched by action—most maintain minimal direct allocations to AI infrastructure or venture capital.
The disconnect underscores a cautious approach among the ultra-wealthy. While AI dominates investment discussions, nearly 80% of family offices report zero exposure to the underlying infrastructure. Public equities remain the default, with private market bets still rare.
Data centers and gold holdings are gaining attention as indirect plays, but crypto exposure stays negligible. The survey, spanning 333 family offices across 30 countries, highlights a market in transition—where rhetoric outpaces capital deployment.
