The history behind Victoria Private Investment Office began in 2003 when a business was established to manage family wealth from the Scanlon family, one of the leading names behind the growth of the Fosters brewing business. Other families and business owners soon joined as clients, and, following a successful MBO, we, the management, now own the business.

Since its early days, the business, previously known as Victoria Capital, has expanded its range of clients from its Mayfair premises and is now known as Victoria Private Investment Office, which better describes our business as investment advisers and investment managers.

The founders, Phillip Russell and Inno van den Berg, have recognised an evident and growing need for personalised service with investment advice which is not only objective and informed but also impartial.

“Our approach is personal and family minded, reflecting the origins of the business and our clients talk directly to us.

“Our capabilities are drawn from our commitment to no particular asset class, our expertise across both traditional and alternative investments, our understanding of currency risks and our unrestricted use of a range of appropriate investments.

“Above all, our capabilities are grounded in our commitment to doing the right thing for each and every client. Always.”
