About Us
We are a team of finance experts, each with a minimum of 25-30 years of experience, and a focus on helping institutions and families achieve their operational, financial and personal goals.
With a special emphasis on operational structure, governance, risk management, investment portfolio management, private frontier opportunities and legacy planning, we have worked with some of the world’s largest institutions, but we’re just as comfortable discussing over a coffee.
So if you’re looking for a down-to-earth team to help you navigate the financial landscape, we’re here for you.
Key Services
Specialist Management Consultancy
We help our clients achieve their financial goals by providing expert advice on structure, governance, operations, licensing, and much more.
Financial Guidance and Consultancy
We help you achieve your financial goals and plan for the future with personalized portfolio management and expert consultancy.
Frontier Opportunities
Using our extensive global network of professional partners, we source exclusive investment opportunities in frontier markets, such as health-care, bio-tech and smart infrastructure.
Experience
Management Consultancy
Through our Appareo platform, we specialize in creating, transforming, and enhancing financial and organizational structures, with precision and excellence.
All members of the team are committed to ensuring that your establishment, migration, or expansion is executed with seamless efficiency and a bespoke approach.
Portfolio Management
Ultimately, you have acquired your wealth, and you want it to grow. That’s where portfolio management comes in. We’re experts at selecting the right mix of investments to meet your goals, whether that’s creating a solid income stream, buying a yacht or leaving a legacy.
Private Investments
Private investments refer to investments made in privately held companies, rather than publicly traded ones. This type of investment offers the potential for high returns, but also carries greater risk and is typically only available to accredited/professional investors.
Success is not about being the best in all things.
It's the maturity to know your limits and having the connections with the best in their field, allowing you to do YOU.
There is no person or institution that can claim knowledge and experience to do everything alone, and for this very reason we work with specialists in specific areas, to ensure delivery with precision.
