Direct Investment Opportunities

Curated access to private markets – private equity, private credit, real assets and co-investments, historically reserved for very large single-family offices.

Some of the most compelling long-term opportunities sit outside listed markets, in private assets that have traditionally been the preserve of institutions and the largest family offices. We curate access to these opportunities for the families we serve and, just as importantly, bring institutional discipline to how they are selected and how they fit within a portfolio.

WHAT WE PROVIDE ACCESS TO
Private equity
Investments into established and growth businesses, accessed through carefully selected managers and structures.
Private credit
Lending-based strategies that can offer income and diversification away from listed bond markets.
Real assets
Property, infrastructure and other tangible assets with long-duration, often inflation-aware return characteristics.
Co-investments
Selective opportunities to invest alongside managers and partners in specific transactions.

Who this is for

You want rigour, not just access

You want private-market opportunities assessed and sized within your portfolio, not pursued simply because access was available.

You invest at scale

You’re investing substantial, patient capital and want access to opportunities usually reserved for the largest institutions.

You're a patient investor

You’re investing across a multi-decade horizon and can commit for longer periods in exchange for the potential return.

You value oversight

You value independent oversight and custody behind every opportunity presented to you.

You want real diversification

You want genuine diversification through private equity, private credit and real assets, not just listed shares and bonds.

Discipline, not just access

Opportunities are assessed through our investment process, drawing on Mercer's research and our Investment Committee. Access alone is never the reason to invest. That’s why private-market exposure is blended into your portfolio as a structural allocation under your Investment Policy Statement, with illiquidity and concentration managed deliberately. Implementation and custody also sit with independent parties, consistent with the four-party separation of duties that governs every Family Office engagement.

Built for patience

Private assets reward patient capital. These opportunities suit families investing across a multi-decade horizon, who can commit capital for longer periods in exchange for the potential return and diversification benefits – with the customised treasury strategy meeting shorter-term needs.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Trusted by families
The measure of our work is the confidence our clients feel and the relationships that last. Helping people make better decisions about their future is a privilege we never take lightly, which makes receiving their thanks all the more gratifying.

My only regret is not having met Michael and his fabulous team years ago. Retaining Family Wealth Advisory was the best financial decision my family ever made. Michael’s advice is considered, well documented and easy to understand – his team are an absolute pleasure to deal with.

We engaged Family Wealth Advisory to manage and grow our superannuation funds and feel as though a weight has been taken off our shoulders. The advice and excellent service received exceeded our expectations and we finally have a realistic plan to grow our wealth now and in the future.

Michael is not just a financial adviser. He is a trusted presence in our family, a coach and confidante. He listens, motivates and guides us to align our goals so we do not go backward but always forward. We cannot imagine a more reliable and trustworthy advisory team.

Professionalism, passion and integrity sums up Family Wealth Advisory in three words. The feedback we consistently receive from our clients is that they are very well looked after by the Family Wealth Advisory team and delighted with the high quality service they receive. We continue to highly recommend Family Wealth Advisory to our clients.

Michael and the team at Family Wealth Advisory have developed a wealth management strategy strongly grounded in the fundamentals and accurately reflecting our evolving needs. I have found them a pleasure to work with, responsive and very professional in their approach to managing our wealth.

Mike and his team have been extremely professional in handling our finances over the last few years. Mike has given us the peace of mind we had been seeking from a financial adviser for some time. His breadth of knowledge paired with his integrity are exemplary. We are so pleased to entrust our savings with Mike and his team.
