Driven by Conviction, Not Convention

Alternative Wealth Management for Families & Investors with $10–$50M Net Worth

Let’s Talk Wealth

The Laureate Distinction

Laureate Wealth serves families and investors who seek a different approach and want advisors who do the same.

Our founder spent years as an advisor in traditional markets — and saw how easy it is to disappear into consensus. Especially in moments of crisis, being wrong in “the herd” actually means escaping accountability. Laureate Wealth was built as a response — a firm willing to think independently, allocate with intention, and recognize emerging opportunities early.

We invest in real estate, private equity and venture deals in addition to traditional markets — with conviction, focus, and a willingness to go where others won’t. 
We invest alongside our clients, staying selective and aligned at every step.

How We Think

Stewardship
Mindset

Stewardship isn’t a slogan — it’s a responsibility. We build relationships, source deals, and do diligence required to protect and grow real wealth. This is face-to-face, long-view work — not platform-driven exposure.

Private
Markets First

Real estate, private equity, and venture are where our clients’ capital works hardest. 
These are the markets where access matters, experience separates signal from noise, and 
real value is built over time. Public markets are often where we exit — not where we begin. Liquidity is a result, not a strategy.

Discipline &
Conviction by Design

Conviction and vision matter. We build portfolios with the next decade in mind — not the next quarter. That means focusing on differentiated opportunities, including emerging ones others may overlook, constructing portfolios intentionally, and avoiding the pull of crowded trades or market consensus.

We don’t follow, we filter. And we stay grounded in first principles when others drift.
