Your life, your love, your goals. Financial advice that sees the whole you.

Financial advice that understands your life, your relationships and the future you’re building. LGBTQ+ inclusive, personal, and grounded in what matters to you.

Most of us have a picture in our heads of the life we want, whether that’s retirement, freedom, or simply feeling secure. Getting there can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone.

At BG Private, our Financial Advisors build a goals-based plan around your whole picture: your income, your super, your investments, and the people you call family. We understand that families come in every shape, and we plan for yours.

With a BG Private advisor in your corner, you’ll have a clear, practical plan to work towards your goals with confidence. And through life’s twists and turns, we’ll be right there with you.

BG Private: building the future you want, today, tomorrow and beyond.

We work with SMEs, family businesses, not-for-profits and private individuals. Our teams collaborate across specialties to see the whole picture, so we can meet your needs today and help you reach your goals for tomorrow and beyond.

We start with your story.

Traditional financial planning was often built around one kind of life story, and many LGBTQ+ Australians don’t see themselves in it. At BG Private, we start with yours. Our Financial Advisors take the time to understand your relationships, your family, your values and your goals, so the advice you receive reflects the life you’re actually living.

We can help with

  • Inclusive life planning, whether you’re single, partnered, married or parenting
  • Building wealth in a way that fits your lifestyle, values and identity
  • Ethical investing that puts your money behind what you believe in
  • Planning and funding for adoption, IVF, surrogacy or gender-affirming care
  • Shared finances as a couple, including property and superannuation
  • Starting a new relationship, including where your financial situations differ
  • LGBTQ+ friendly retirement living and aged care options
  • Planning for your care and support, including choosing who you trust as your Power of Attorney or guardian, especially if you don’t have children
  • Estate planning and leaving a legacy, whether that’s to chosen family, loved ones or a cause close to your heart
