Investment Consulting

Disciplined portfolios built to compound across cycles.

What is this?

In plain language.

We help you decide what to own, why, and how much — then keep that plan honest as markets and your life evolve.

Independent advice, no products sold, no commissions taken — just a portfolio you can articulate in one paragraph and defend in any environment.

Overview

PCF Investment Consulting is built for clients who treat capital allocation as a multi-decade discipline, not a quarterly trade. We design portfolios around clear objectives — capital preservation, growth, income, or a defined liability — and stress-test them against macro, liquidity, and concentration risks.

Our engagements are advisory and bespoke. We work alongside your existing custodians, accountants, and family office, providing an independent strategic layer that ensures every position has a stated thesis, exit logic, and place in the broader plan.

The result is a portfolio you can articulate in one paragraph and defend in any market environment.

This is for you if…

Why PCF

What sets this engagement apart

Independent by design

No proprietary products, no commissions, no placement fees. Every recommendation is judged solely on its fit to your policy.

Senior coverage only

You work directly with a partner-level advisor who underwrites every position — not a rotating analyst pool.

Custody you control

Assets stay in your name at your chosen custodian. PCF holds discretion only where you formally grant it.

In Practice

How we help

Anonymised scenario

Founder, post-liquidity event

A technology founder concentrated in a single equity position needed to diversify $40M without triggering avoidable tax drag or signaling risk. We co-designed a written investment policy, a 24-month staged unwind, and a multi-asset target allocation built around their philanthropic and family obligations.

Results
  • Concentration reduced from 92% to 18% of net worth in 24 months
  • Tax drag minimised through coordinated harvesting and gifting
  • Documented policy adopted by family office for ongoing governance
