Asset Services is where your clients’ assets live safely and transparently

  • Where assets live and how they’re protected.

    Custody is the core of Asset Services: clear legal ownership, operational segregation and robust controls.

    We provide:

    • Standard and bespoke custody structures for multi-asset portfolios

    • Segregated arrangements designed for AFSL holders, platforms and family offices

    • Safekeeping for equities, bonds, funds, ETFs, cash, FX balances and metals (where eligible)

    • Clear documentation so everyone understands who owns what, where and under which framework

    You get bank-grade safekeeping, wrapped in a service model built for independent professionals rather than mass retail.

  • Turning good process into a visible strength.

    Regulators, trustees, boards and families all want the same thing: evidence that their assets are being managed and administered properly.

    Asset Services supports that by providing:

    • Governance frameworks aligned with Australian and global regulatory expectations

    • Ongoing monitoring, reconciliations and controls across accounts and counterparties

    • Data, packs and artefacts to support investment committees, board reporting and audit

    • Documented processes that turn “we think it’s fine” into “here’s how we know”

    Governance stops being a burden and becomes part of your professional story.

  • The operational rails behind every portfolio.

    Every trade, cash movement and corporate action needs to be captured, checked and reflected in the record.

    We handle:

    • Front-, middle- and back-office workflows built around your business

    • Trade capture, confirmations, settlement and fail management

    • Income processing, corporate actions and tax-relevant data capture

    • Cash management routines aligned with your operating model

    • Integration with your existing platforms, CRMs and reporting tools where appropriate

    You keep control of the client and investment decisions; we keep the engine room running so the data is right and on time.

  • One coherent picture for clients, advisers and stakeholders.

    Asset Services turns raw position data into clear, defensible information.

    We provide:

    • Secure, near real-time access to positions, valuations and transaction history

    • Customisable performance, risk and compliance reporting

    • White-label reports you can share with clients, boards, trustees and other stakeholders

    • Exportable datasets and packs for advice, accounting and governance workflows

    Your practice, your clients and your oversight bodies all see the same version of the truth, not a patchwork of systems and spreadsheets.

  • Always-on visibility with institutional resilience.

    Our digital layer is designed for professional users:

    • Look-through across entities, accounts, portfolios, currencies and (where applicable) metals

    • Role-based access for advisers, support staff, executives and committees

    • Security, data privacy and operational resilience embedded at every layer

    You get institutional-grade infrastructure without the need to own and operate it yourself.
