First Guardian Capital is a diversified financial services firm, specialising in investment management and corporate advisory. We manage assets for institutional investors, across Australia and Asia, covering equities, real asset portfolios and superannuation. Our core investment team has been managing domestic and international share portfolios for institutional investors globally since 1985, and draws on extensive international experience and insights from across Australasia in the private sector, institutional and government contexts.
As a specialist investment manager, we have an overriding focus on generating attractive absolute returns whilst preserving capital. When managing portfolios, we apply an all-weather investment process designed to adapt to any phase of the investment cycle. All investment decisions are based on our proprietary, internally-developed investment approach. We believe that optimum investment insights derive from specialised investment teams with focused perspectives, operating with strong risk oversight.
First Guardian develops strong relationships with clients to become a trusted advisor for private investment and corporate clients. While based in Melbourne, we maintain an extensive footprint in Asia, where our on-the-ground presence together with a wide network of associates, allows us to maintain deep market knowledge and deliver compelling solutions to investors across the region.
