Our Philosophy of Advice

We believe that all successful long-term investing is goal-orientated and therefore planning-driven.

A client-specific, goal-orientated strategy must come first, before the portfolio management, never the other way around. We focus on the after-tax financial position of our clients.

We also believe that by far the most important factor in determining the long-term investment returns people get in real life is their own behaviour. We coach our clients to act counter-intuitively throughout the investment cycle, by helping them avoid the great behavioural investment mistakes that result in the failure of the average Australian to achieve their life-time goals. For example, by not running with the herd near the top of a market and not fleeing during a downturn.
