One of America’s top business schools, the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, has launched the Wharton Global Family Alliance, an initiative which combines research, teaching and outreach to create resources for families at the “pinnacle” of wealth.

The WGFA is to work in collaboration with the CCC Alliance—a network of approximately 60 families from across the world with wealth ranging from hundreds of millions to billions of dollars.

Along with business management, the WGFA plans to study how best to manage the wealth and philanthropic gifts of the world's wealthiest families.

Wharton is currently only offering one class in wealth management, but the WGFA hopes to launch more courses in upcoming years.

More information about the Wharton Global Family Alliance can be found on its website at: http://wgfa.wharton.upenn.edu
