JPMorgan Report: Family Offices Favor AI Investments, 89% Have Not Engaged in Cryptocurrency

According to Cointelegraph, JPMorgan's Private Bank's latest "2026 Global Family Office Report" shows that artificial intelligence has become the dominant investment theme for the world's largest family offices, while cryptocurrency continues to attract limited interest. The report surveyed 333 single-family offices from 30 countries, revealing that 65% of respondents listed AI-related investments as a current or future priority, while only 17% viewed cryptocurrency as a key investment theme.

The data shows that 89% of family offices currently have no exposure to cryptocurrency, with the global average allocation to crypto assets at just 0.4%, and even lower for Bitcoin exposure, averaging only 0.2%. In contrast, 37% of respondents plan to increase their allocation to private equity in the next 12 to 18 months. Notably, family offices in Asia are showing growing interest in cryptocurrency, with some institutions targeting allocations of up to 5%.
