Richter, a leading Business Family Office, is expanding its national presence with the opening of a new office in Calgary and the addition of two new partners, Michael Kaumeyer and Errol Kuszner. The firm, which is celebrating its centennial year, aims to deepen its relationships with entrepreneurs, business owners, and families across Western Canada.
Strategic Expansion in Western Canada
The new Calgary office, set to open in the coming months, will serve as a hub for Richter's Western Canada operations. Michael Kaumeyer, a deeply rooted Calgary professional, will anchor the expansion. His extensive network and credibility with entrepreneurial families will help establish a permanent presence in Alberta. “Western Canada is a market built by people with ambition, resilience and a long-term view,” said Kaumeyer. “Richter brings a model that can meet that complexity with the right mix of independence, depth and integrated thinking.”
Strengthening the Business Family Office Offering
Errol Kuszner brings over 20 years of experience working with successful families, institutions, and foundations. His expertise will complement Richter's national Business Family Office services. “Sophisticated families are looking for advice that connects the dots,” Kuszner explained. “Richter's Business Family Office model brings that thinking together in a way that is both highly sophisticated and deeply personal.”
Tasso Lagios, Managing Partner of Richter, expressed confidence in the firm's future. “As Richter marks 100 years, we are looking ahead with confidence, ambition and a strong sense of responsibility for what comes next. Our next chapter is about staying close to the entrepreneurs, business owners and families we serve, and continuing to build Richter around the complexity of their evolving needs.”
