Unique wealth management & financial advisory

Shaped around who you are and the life you want to live

Our mark of distinction

If you have no time to enjoy your passions when you have worked so hard for your wealth, what is the deeper meaning of your success?

Wealth is often described in black-and-white terms: business, income, structuring and capital flow. However, the reality for most successful families and entrepreneurs is that wealth is about so much more. Wealthy families have interests that extend far beyond managing and growing their fortune.

We are turning what matters most to our clients into a clear and structured plan for their wealth, business and families

ELIR is an independent, privately owned financial advisory and corporate services company based in Luxembourg and in London.

We at ELIR employ an intuitive yet uncommon relationship driven approach that assures confidentiality, competency, continuity and caring.

What is important to us?

ELIR focuses primarily on three core principles that underline our services, client relationship and actions:

Authenticity

We all at ELIR strive to remain genuine, transparent, and true to our values, purpose, and identity. Authenticity helps us establish an emotional connection with all stakeholders. By being relatable, approachable, and human, we build trust, loyalty, and long-term relationships.

Long-term relationship

As a private advisor, ELIR's long term vision allows an utmost flexibility and an unparalleled commitment. Long term for us is caring. This seems like an obvious principle, but it's surprising how often it is overlooked.

Our clients typically require and expect a greater level of service. The level of care and sensitivity exhibited in delivering this customized support is very important for us.

Entrepreneurship

At ELIR, we live our entrepreneurial spirit every day. Guided by passion and simplicity, we treat our clients as true partners and often invest alongside them in opportunities we present and/or analyze.

About the founder

Irina Boechat-Agaponova founded ELIR in 2022. Born into an entrepreneurial family and shaped by her early experiences in family business, Irina founded ELIR to help high-net-worth groups and successful entrepreneurs meet both business and personal objectives.

"I believe many family offices and wealth managers overlook the inter-connectivity between a client's prosperity and personal passions. At ELIR in addition to the management and administration of families' corporate structures, we also help clients enjoy the fruits of their success and create new legacies. This can encompass anything from helping the next generation learn the proficiencies needed to succeed in the business world to assisting clients in understanding more about interests that overlap with assets or investments."

ELIR Corporate Services can tailor available structures to meet specific goals and optimize investments. Among other vehicles, the most requested structures are:

SPF - wealth management vehicle by excellence

The Luxembourg SPF (société de gestion de patrimoine familial) is a flexible vehicle of choice for private wealth and estate management. It is often set up and administered by wealth managers and fiduciaries like ELIR on behalf of wealthy families and individuals to structure capital and investments.

Securitization companies

Securitization vehicles are the instruments of choice to raise money by issuing debt as an alternative to equity financing. They allow to avoid share dilution and can be structured in the form of separate compartments, limited by the assets of each compartment.

Art as a wealth class

ELIR can arrange and assist in the financing of high-end art investments via Luxembourg banks or wealth managers' loans.

As passionate collectors of art ourselves, we also help our clients understand art investments, collecting, mediums, history, and the art market in greater depth.
