Common Private Advisory Questions
-
Private advisory goes beyond product recommendations. It covers wealth structuring, tax strategy, estate planning and investment oversight, usually with a small number of clients who get direct access to senior advisors, not account managers.
Get in touch to discuss how we can support you. -
There's no hard threshold, but our private wealth advisory service is best suited to individuals or families with $1M+ in assets, or business owners approaching a significant event like a sale, restructure or succession.
Book a conversation and we'll tell you straight whether we're the right fit.
-
That's actually one of the most valuable things we do. We act as the central point of coordination across your advisory team, so advice doesn't fall through the gaps between professionals.
-
Trusts aren't right for everyone, but for business owners and investors they're one of the most effective tools for distributing income, protecting assets and planning for succession. Discretionary, unit, testamentary, the type that suits you depends on what you're trying to achieve.
Talk to us about whether a trust belongs in your structure.
-
A will deals with assets you own personally at death. An estate plan covers everything, including assets held in trusts, super, companies and jointly owned property, most of which a will can't actually touch. For most private clients, a will alone leaves significant gaps.
