What type of client is Cameron Harrison best suited to?

Cameron Harrison is best suited to clients who have meaningful wealth, significant complexity or important long-term planning decisions to make.

We place particular emphasis on understanding clients deeply, managing detail carefully and providing continuity through different stages of life, business and family wealth.

Is Cameron Harrison a private bank, financial adviser, investment manager or family office?

Cameron Harrison combines elements of investment management, private wealth advice and family office-style coordination.

For some clients, our role is primarily to manage investments. For others, our role is broader: helping coordinate advisers, design wealth strategy, oversee reporting, structure family governance, plan business succession or manage the transition from active business wealth to passive investment wealth.

The right service model depends on your circumstances, objectives and the level of complexity involved.

Where does Cameron Harrison operate from?

Cameron Harrison operates in Melbourne, Victoria and Sydney, New South Wales. Our Melbourne office is located at Level 17, North Tower, 80 Collins Street, Melbourne VIC 3000. Our Sydney office is located at Level 26, 1 Bligh Street, Sydney, NSW 2000.

We regularly work with clients whose affairs extend beyond Melbourne and Sydney, including families, business owners and investment structures with national or international elements. Meetings may be held in person or virtually, depending on the nature of the relationship and your needs.

Relevant links: Contact Us.

Who will I work with at Cameron Harrison?

Every client is supported by a dedicated team led by a Partner. The team is structured to bring together complementary skills across strategy, investment management, portfolio oversight, administration and specialist advice.

The aim is continuity. We want clients to work with people who understand their objectives, family, structures, risk preferences and long-term priorities over time.

Relevant links: Our People.

Will I work with the same team over time?

Yes. Cameron Harrison places a high value on long-term relationships and continuity of advice.

Over time, that continuity helps the team understand your financial affairs in depth, anticipate issues, coordinate with your other advisers and adapt your strategy as your circumstances change. This is particularly important for families, business owners and significant wealth owners whose needs may evolve across decades and generations.

What happens in the first meeting?

The first meeting is a discovery conversation. It is usually led by a Cameron Harrison Partner and is designed to understand your circumstances, objectives, concerns and priorities.

We will usually discuss your current financial position, investment arrangements, family or business structures, existing advisers, major decisions ahead and the areas where you need support. We will also explain how Cameron Harrison works and which service areas may be relevant.

After the meeting, we can determine whether there is a suitable basis for an ongoing relationship or a defined scope of advice.

What should I prepare before meeting Cameron Harrison?

You do not need to have everything perfectly organised before the first meeting. It is helpful, however, to bring or have access to information that gives a clear picture of your financial affairs.

The purpose is not to review every detail immediately. It is to understand the shape of your affairs and identify the areas requiring deeper work.

  • current investment portfolio details;

  • superannuation or SMSF information;

  • trust, company or family group structure summaries;

  • recent tax or financial statements;

  • estate planning documents;

  • business ownership or succession information;

  • details of existing advisers;

  • a list of goals, concerns or decisions you want to address.

How does Cameron Harrison build a wealth strategy?

Cameron Harrison begins by understanding your objectives, risks, time horizon, family circumstances, investment needs and decision-making preferences.

From there, we develop a strategy that may include investment policy, portfolio construction, wealth planning, retirement income planning, estate and intergenerational planning, business succession, tax strategy coordination, asset protection and governance. The scope depends on your needs.

For complex clients, the process may also involve working with lawyers, accountants, bankers, trustees or other professional advisers to ensure the strategy is coordinated and implemented properly.

Can Cameron Harrison work with my accountant, lawyer or other advisers?

Yes. Many Cameron Harrison clients already have accountants, lawyers, bankers, trustees or other specialist advisers.

Our role is often to bring the different elements together so that advice is coordinated rather than fragmented. We can work alongside your existing advisers, or help identify specialist providers where additional expertise is required. The objective is to ensure your investment, business, tax, estate, legal and family considerations are aligned within a single strategy.

How often will my strategy be reviewed?

Review frequency depends on your service arrangement, portfolio and circumstances. Cameron Harrison provides ongoing monitoring and regular formal reporting for investment management clients, and strategic reviews for broader wealth management relationships.

Some matters require scheduled review, such as portfolio performance, asset allocation, investment policy and reporting. Others may be event-driven, such as a business sale, inheritance, retirement, market disruption, family transition, change in tax law, major liquidity event or estate planning change.

Does Cameron Harrison provide one-off advice or only ongoing relationships?

Cameron Harrison's primary focus is long-term advisory and investment relationships. However, some clients may require a defined specialist advice project before determining whether ongoing support is appropriate.

Examples may include a business succession review, family governance project, investment policy formulation, portfolio risk review, post-sale wealth planning exercise or significant wealth framework assessment.

The appropriate scope will depend on the complexity of the issue and the outcomes required.

What do Cameron Harrison's Investment Solutions include?

Cameron Harrison's Investment Solutions provide tailored investment management across strategy formulation, asset allocation, portfolio construction, investment selection, risk management, custody, administration and reporting.

Depending on your circumstances, your portfolio may involve a single asset class strategy, a bespoke asset allocation strategy or a multi-asset class strategy. The objective is to align your investment portfolio with your goals, risk tolerance, time horizon, liquidity requirements and broader wealth strategy.

Relevant links: Investment Solutions.

What is Cameron Harrison's investment philosophy?

Cameron Harrison's investment philosophy is grounded in disciplined capital management, responsible risk management, sustainable income and long-term decision-making.

We focus on areas where we have deep experience, seek steady and repeatable outcomes, and place strong emphasis on managing downside risk. Our approach is not to chase short-term market noise, but to construct and manage portfolios with a clear purpose, defined parameters and long-term discipline.

How does Cameron Harrison manage investment risk?

Cameron Harrison manages investment risk by first understanding your objectives, time horizon, liquidity needs and risk tolerance, then designing an investment strategy that reflects those factors.

Risk management may include asset allocation, diversification, quality screening, scenario analysis, portfolio monitoring, investment policy formulation, liquidity management and regular performance review. We also consider risks such as volatility, inflation, interest rates, currency exposure, concentration risk and funding requirements.

The goal is not to eliminate risk entirely. It is to take risk deliberately, understand it clearly and manage it within agreed parameters.

What asset classes can Cameron Harrison manage?

Cameron Harrison's investment capabilities include Australian equities, global equities, fixed income, cash and treasury management, property and real assets, private investments and multi-asset class strategies.

The right asset mix depends on your objectives, risk tolerance, investment horizon, income needs, tax position, liquidity requirements and broader wealth strategy. Not every asset class is suitable for every client.

Does Cameron Harrison offer discretionary portfolio management?

Cameron Harrison can manage portfolios on a discretionary basis where this is appropriate and agreed under the relevant service arrangement.

A discretionary arrangement allows the investment team to manage the portfolio within agreed mandate parameters without seeking separate approval for every transaction. This can improve discipline, responsiveness and implementation, while still operating within the strategy and authority agreed with the client.

The terms of any discretionary mandate should be clearly documented before implementation.

How are client portfolios reported?

Clients receive transparent reporting designed to show portfolio holdings, performance, strategy and relevant portfolio activity.

Clients have online access to view portfolio information through the relevant platform or custodian, and receive formal reporting at agreed intervals. Reporting may include portfolio valuation, performance, attribution, asset allocation, income, transactions and strategy commentary, depending on the service arrangement.

Can reporting be consolidated across different assets?

Yes, where information is available and the service arrangement supports it, Cameron Harrison can provide consolidated reporting across multiple asset types.

This may include listed securities, cash, fixed income, managed funds, private investments, property, currency exposures and other relevant holdings. For significant wealth owners and family groups, consolidated reporting can be especially valuable because it helps provide one clearer view of total wealth, risk and performance.

What is an investment policy and why does it matter?

An investment policy sets the purpose, objectives, risk parameters and management framework for a portfolio.

It may define return objectives, income needs, asset allocation ranges, liquidity requirements, risk limits, governance responsibilities, ethical preferences, reporting needs and review processes. For families, significant wealth owners and not-for-profit organisations, an investment policy can create discipline, accountability and consistency in decision-making.

Relevant links: Investment Solutions; Wealth Management Solutions; Not-for-Profit.

Do you offer ethical or ESG investment options?

Yes. Cameron Harrison can consider ethical, responsible investment or ESG preferences as part of portfolio construction where this is appropriate for the client's objectives.

This may involve screening out particular sectors, prioritising certain investment characteristics or incorporating sustainability preferences into the portfolio mandate. Any ethical or ESG preferences should be balanced with risk, diversification, liquidity, income and return objectives.

Do clients own the underlying investments?

In Cameron Harrison's current custody model, client assets are held through an independent custodian or platform in separately identifiable accounts. The investments are not held on Cameron Harrison's balance sheet.

The exact ownership and custody arrangements depend on the platform, product and service selected. Clients should refer to the relevant disclosure documents, platform documents and agreements before investing.

Relevant links: Product Disclosure Register; Financial Services Guide.

Who holds client assets?

Client assets are held by an independent custodian, currently Netwealth, in separately identifiable accounts.

Using an external custodian helps separate client assets from Cameron Harrison's own business and provides an additional layer of administration, reporting and oversight. Clients should review the relevant platform documents and product disclosure materials before proceeding.

What do Cameron Harrison's Wealth Management Solutions involve?

The aim is to create a clear plan that connects your investments, structures, family needs, business interests and long-term goals. This is particularly valuable where financial affairs are complex, multi-entity or spread across several advisers.

Relevant links: Wealth Management Solutions.

What is the difference between investment management and wealth management?

Investment management focuses on managing your portfolio. Wealth management looks at the broader picture of your financial life.

Investment management may involve asset allocation, portfolio construction, stock or fund selection, risk management and reporting. Wealth management may also include retirement planning, superannuation, estate planning, tax strategy coordination, asset protection, philanthropy, family governance, succession and coordination with other advisers.

Many clients require both.

Does Cameron Harrison provide retirement planning?

Yes. Cameron Harrison can assist with retirement planning as part of a broader wealth management strategy.

Retirement planning may include investment income strategy, superannuation planning, pension structuring, asset allocation, tax considerations, estate planning, liquidity management and long-term cash flow needs. The aim is to help clients move from wealth accumulation to sustainable income and capital management with confidence.

Does Cameron Harrison assist with superannuation and SMSFs?

Yes. Cameron Harrison can assist with superannuation strategy and investment management where this forms part of a client's broader wealth plan.

This may include portfolio management for superannuation assets, investment policy, asset allocation, retirement income strategy, contribution and pension considerations, and coordination with accountants or SMSF specialists. The appropriate advice depends on your fund structure, member circumstances and regulatory requirements.

Does Cameron Harrison assist with estate planning?

Yes. Cameron Harrison assists with estate planning strategy and intergenerational wealth transfer as part of broader wealth management.

Estate planning often requires legal documentation, so Cameron Harrison may work with your lawyer or estate planning specialist to ensure the strategy is properly documented and implemented. Our role is to help ensure your wealth transfer intentions, family dynamics, investment structures, tax considerations and governance needs are considered together.

Does Cameron Harrison prepare wills or legal documents?

No. Wills, powers of attorney, trust deeds and other legal documents should be prepared by qualified legal practitioners.

Cameron Harrison can help you identify the strategic issues that need to be addressed, coordinate with your lawyers and ensure the estate planning work aligns with your broader wealth strategy, investment arrangements, family circumstances and long-term objectives.

Does Cameron Harrison provide tax advice?

Cameron Harrison can advise on tax strategy as part of an integrated wealth plan, but specialist tax advice and tax return preparation may require coordination with your accountant or tax adviser.

Our role is to help ensure that investment, structuring, business, superannuation, estate and philanthropic decisions are considered in light of tax outcomes. The objective is not simply to minimise tax, but to optimise outcomes within the law and within your broader objectives.

Does Cameron Harrison help with asset protection?

Yes. Cameron Harrison can assist with asset protection strategy as part of wealth management or specialist advice.

Asset protection may involve reviewing how wealth is owned, where risk sits, how entities interact, whether business and personal wealth are appropriately separated, and how estate planning, insurance, succession and governance arrangements support long-term protection. Specialist legal and tax input may be required.

Does Cameron Harrison assist with philanthropy?

Yes. Cameron Harrison can help clients develop philanthropic strategies as part of their broader wealth and legacy planning.

This may include clarifying giving objectives, considering philanthropic structures, coordinating with advisers, integrating philanthropy with estate planning, and helping families make decisions about charitable giving across generations.

How does Cameron Harrison approach intergenerational wealth transfer?

Cameron Harrison approaches intergenerational wealth transfer by considering both the technical and human dimensions of family wealth.

This may include estate planning, family governance, education of the next generation, investment policy, trusts and structures, business succession, philanthropy, communication frameworks and decision-making processes. The goal is to help wealth transfer in a way that reflects the family's values, reduces confusion and supports long-term stewardship.

How does Cameron Harrison help business owners?

Cameron Harrison helps business owners connect their business decisions with their personal, family and investment wealth strategy.

Business owners often carry concentrated risk in their operating business. We help consider how that business risk interacts with personal wealth, investment portfolios, asset protection, tax strategy, retirement, succession, estate planning and family objectives.

Relevant links: Business Owners; Specialist Advice Solutions.

Can Cameron Harrison help with business succession?

Yes. Cameron Harrison assists business owners with succession and business transition planning.

This may include preparing for sale, transitioning ownership to family members, planning a management buyout, extracting capital, diversifying personal wealth, addressing family governance, coordinating advisers and integrating the proceeds or retained interests into a broader wealth plan.

Succession is not only a business issue. It is also a personal, family, tax, investment and legacy issue.

When should a business owner start succession planning?

A business owner should ideally start succession planning well before they intend to sell, transition or step back.

Early planning can help improve optionality, reduce risk, prepare the business, address family expectations, improve governance, structure ownership appropriately and align personal wealth planning with business outcomes. Waiting until a transaction is imminent can limit choices and increase pressure.

What are Specialist Advice Solutions?

Specialist Advice Solutions are Cameron Harrison's technical advisory services for complex or specific wealth, business, family and governance issues.

These may include business owner planning, succession and transition planning, family business advice, family governance and charters, asset and wealth protection, taxation structuring coordination, business transactions, project planning, philanthropy and governance advisory.

Relevant links: Specialist Advice Solutions.

What is family business advice?

Family business advice helps business-owning families manage the relationship between family, ownership, business operations and wealth.

Common issues include succession, remuneration, conflict, family members working inside or outside the business, governance, culture, decision-making, ownership structures, estate planning and the transition from active business wealth to passive investment wealth.

Cameron Harrison's approach seeks to bring structure, objectivity and a long-term plan to these issues.

What is a family charter?

A family charter is a governance document that sets out shared principles, decision-making processes and expectations for a family group.

It may address family values, ownership, investment governance, business participation, conflict resolution, communication, education of the next generation, philanthropy and succession. A charter is especially useful where wealth, business interests or family decision-making involve multiple generations.

What is the FaBrs™ 15-factor framework?

FaBrs™ is Cameron Harrison's 15-factor framework designed to help business owners and families address complexity across strategy, structure and conduct.

The framework is used to assess and prioritise issues across business activity, passive wealth, family involvement, governance, succession, risk, intergenerational wealth transfer and long-term purpose. It can be applied broadly or focused on selected issues, depending on the family's needs.

Relevant links: Specialist Advice Solutions.

What are Significant Wealth Owner Solutions?

This service is designed for clients whose financial affairs may include multiple investment portfolios, business interests, trusts, properties, private investments, family governance needs, philanthropic objectives and advisers across different disciplines.

What does family office-style support mean?

Family office-style support means coordinated oversight across the different parts of a family's wealth.

This may include investment management, consolidated reporting, family governance, adviser coordination, succession planning, philanthropy, estate planning coordination, entity review, risk management, education of the next generation and support for major family financial decisions.

Cameron Harrison's role may be to act as a central strategic adviser, helping the family manage complexity and maintain alignment over time.

Can Cameron Harrison replace a family office?

For some clients, Cameron Harrison can provide an alternative to establishing a standalone family office. For others, we may support or strengthen an existing family office.

The right model depends on the family's size, complexity, cost base, staffing needs, governance requirements and desired level of control. Cameron Harrison can help assess whether a dedicated family office, outsourced family office model or hybrid structure is appropriate.

How does Cameron Harrison support family governance?

Cameron Harrison supports family governance by helping families define how decisions are made, who is involved, what values guide the family, how investments are governed and how responsibilities move across generations.

This may include family charters, investment committees, family councils, governance frameworks, education programs, meeting structures, reporting processes and adviser coordination. The purpose is to reduce ambiguity and support clear, accountable decision-making.

Can Cameron Harrison help after a business sale or liquidity event?

Yes. Cameron Harrison often assists clients before, during and after major liquidity events such as the sale of a business, inheritance, asset sale or corporate transaction.

After a liquidity event, the challenge is often moving from concentrated active wealth to diversified passive wealth. This may involve treasury management, staged investment, tax coordination, risk management, estate planning, family communication, philanthropy, governance and long-term portfolio construction.

How does Cameron Harrison help not-for-profit organisations?

Cameron Harrison assists not-for-profit organisations with investment strategy, risk management, governance, reporting and long-term financial stability.

How does Cameron Harrison report to boards or investment committees?

Reporting can be tailored to the governance needs of the organisation. This may include portfolio valuation, asset allocation, performance, income, risk measures, mandate compliance, attribution and strategy commentary.

The goal is to provide clear information that supports board oversight, investment committee decision-making and stakeholder accountability.

Can Cameron Harrison manage different risk mandates for a not-for-profit?

Yes, where appropriate. Some not-for-profit organisations require different pools of capital to be managed for different purposes.

For example, one pool may support near-term funding needs, another may be managed for long-term capital growth, and another may be governed by specific ethical or liquidity constraints. Cameron Harrison can help define these mandates and integrate them into the organisation's broader funding strategy.

What is Cameron Harrison's fee structure?

Cameron Harrison operates to a transparent, tiered fee model aligned with clients' interests.

Investment management fees are generally based on assets managed, with rates that may scale down for larger portfolios. Fees for broader wealth management, specialist advice or family office-style work are charged on an hourly fee-for-service basis, as agreed in advance, and may depend on the scope, complexity and nature of the engagement.
