Alpine Capital

What Alpine Capital does

Alpine Capital is an Australian financial services firm headquartered in Sydney that operates three integrated divisions — Wealth Management, Corporate Finance, and Institutional Broking — under Australian Financial Services Licence No. 422 477. Founded in 2012 as Wentworth Securities and rebranded in 2022, the firm serves high-net-worth individuals, family offices, independent financial planners, small-to-mid-cap corporates, and institutional investors across Australia. The 14-person team carries approximately 200 years of combined industry experience, with alumni backgrounds spanning Morgan Stanley Dean Witter, Merrill Lynch, Macquarie Bank, Bell Potter, Ord Minnett, PAC Partners, UBS, Credit Suisse, and KPMG.

The firm's core product surface includes Multi-Asset Class Portfolios (MAP) — four risk-profiled strategies (Conservative, Balanced, Growth, High Growth) actively managed via an in-house Tactical Equity Asset Allocation Model (TEAA) integrated with Longview Economics Research timing models. MAP portfolios, live since August 2012, are distributed digitally through the OpenWealth platform with a $10,000 minimum and no entry/exit/switching fees. Corporate Finance delivers IPO advisory, placements, rights issues, convertible notes, block trades, and M&A advisory, while Institutional Broking provides execution and research coverage of emerging, small, and mid-cap Australian markets. International trading access across 32+ markets is enabled via a partnership with FinClear Services, and agritech deal flow is sourced through a relationship with Sparklabs Cultiv8.

Alpine generates revenue through a hybrid model combining recurring wealth management and advisory fees with episodic transaction fees from corporate finance mandates, institutional broking commissions, and securities dealing commissions. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales via direct advisor relationships, complemented by webinars and CEO-level investor access events, with a self-serve digital channel for MAP portfolios. The firm operates from Sydney, Melbourne, and Bathurst and is privately held with no disclosed external funding rounds.

Direct peers

• PAC Partners: Australian boutique advisory, corporate finance and broking firm with a similar small/mid-cap focus. Several Alpine Capital senior staff (Charles Reed, James Emonson, Philip Cawood, Moishe Amzalak) previously worked at PAC Partners, making it the most directly comparable peer in product mix and customer segment.
• Wilsons Advisory: Australian mid-market stockbroking and corporate finance firm with strong institutional and HNW coverage. Multiple Alpine team members (Thomas Schoenmaker, Simon Tritton) previously worked at Wilson HTM, and the two firms target overlapping HNW and small/mid-cap institutional clients.
• Morgans: Australian wealth management, stockbroking and corporate finance firm with a similar private-client-led model. Will Lawson (Alpine Senior Advisor) previously worked in Morgans Private Wealth, and the firms target comparable HNW and emerging-company client bases.
• Canaccord Genuity Australia: Australian arm of a global mid-market investment bank focused on small/mid-cap ECM, M&A and institutional broking. Tom Roche (Alpine institutional sales) joined from Canaccord and the firm competes head-to-head in small/mid-cap corporate finance and broking.

Broad incumbents

• Bell Potter: Large Australian full-service stockbroking and wealth manager with strong HNW and institutional franchises. Overlaps with Alpine's wealth management, broking and small/mid-cap research offering but operates nationally with a larger advisor network.
• Shaw and Partners: Australian wealth manager and investment bank with a strong HNW and small/mid-cap franchise. Competes with Alpine for HNW mandates and corporate finance mandates across the emerging-company segment.
• Investec Australia: Australian private banking, wealth and corporate advisory franchise serving HNW individuals and mid-market companies. Competes with Alpine for HNW advisory wallet share and small/mid-cap M&A and capital markets mandates.

Emerging players
