Our history

Wentworth was formed in early 2012 with the goal of providing clients with a more client-focused, holistic and transparent approach to investing. In particular, we sought to overcome a number of limitations to the traditional stock broking model, whereby advisers were typically:

  • Unable to explicitly document their investment approach and define what differentiates their service offering and how they will add value to the client
  • Unable to demonstrate the performance created by their advice, due to a lack of systems and processes
  • Focused on Australian Equities only, with clients receiving no guidance on how (or why) to invest in other asset classes
  • Focused on being long only due to lack of systems and processes to support derivatives and short-selling
  • Ignorant of the importance of the macro drivers which have an overriding influence on the returns of all asset classes
  • Encouraged to follow house stocks, with house research often being aligned with corporate mandates
  • Promoting corporate transactions that held little value to clients

We have rapidly grown our team, and continue to develop our offering for valued clients.
