Global Strategies for Multi-Generational Wealth
โOver the past several years, Brenthurst Wealth Management has redefined its value proposition to align with the increasingly complex and globalised needs of high-net-worth clients who demand bespoke, integrated solutions that span borders, asset classes and generations.

Adapting to Changing Client Priorities
In todayโs uncertain local and global environment, many high-net-worth clients are shifting from an aggressive growth mindset to a defensive wealth preservation strategy. Managing Director Brian Butchart notes: โDiversification, capital protection, and downside risk management have become top priorities.โ
Brenthurst has strengthened its defensive investment approach by incorporating high-grade bonds, dividend-paying equities, and capital-guaranteed instruments, while offering portfolio rebalancing with non-correlated assets such as infrastructure, private credit, gold, hedge funds, and alternative strategies โ all with careful consideration of capital gains tax implications.
Our approach is holistic, aligning investment strategies with client goals, with a strong focus on risk management. We also prioritise transparent, proactive communication to ensure informed decision-making and to counter misinformation in a fast-moving digital world.
