9 SPONSORS High net worth individuals today face complex financial decisions from selling a business to planning and protecting an enduring legacy. Responding effectively to these needs demands far more than a commoditised solution. It requires a firm with sufficient breadth and calibre of talent and capabilities in managing the complexity of issues across different jurisdictions but small enough to provide a highly personalised service. We believe this is the raison d'être of Azure Wealth. Our clients come to us because we listen to their specific needs and provide a solution not a product. Our clients aim is first to preserve and protect the wealth generated over a lifetime of hard work and then grow it steadily for future generations. At Azure Wealth, we work closely with our clients trusted advisors across a spectrum of expertise such as tax and estate planning. Azure Wealth s diverse team of advisers and investment professionals have led some of the most respected private banks globally. It is our understanding of the requirements of private investors today that brought us together to create Azure Wealth. For non-domiciled and international clients, there is great comfort in knowing that Azure Wealth advisors are intimately familiar with the world beyond their borders. We have a genuine appreciation for the needs of global wealth because Azure Wealth is itself a blend of many cultures. A genuine wealth manager will generate original ideas. No two clients approach investing in the same way. Azure Wealth is an entrepreneurial firm with a reputation for understanding both the needs and mind-set of clients who have created wealth. Our performance goals are a function of our clients risk appetite, not market indices. Like other managers, we adhere to the principle of diversification but this isn t enough to provide absolute returns. Years of experience have taught us that it is often preferable to take profits and lockin performance, not to hope that by retaining enough investments we can spread risk and stem losses. Performance over time is the measure of a wealth manager. Azure Wealth's performance standards are exacting, a result of a core belief in discipline gained through vast experience of different assets and market conditions around the globe. But performance is more than just an investment concept; it applies to all aspects of service as well.
