Building Trust Through Experience
Founded in 1989 as Jarden Morgan Investment Services, the company rebranded as JMIS in 2005 and then to JMI Wealth in 2018. Throughout these transitions, our experienced directors have remained actively involved, ensuring consistent stewardship and high-quality service. Our business thrives on client referrals which are an outcome of our focus on honesty, integrity, and socially responsible investing. Today, we manage almost $2.5 billion across a diverse client base.
On 1 July 2025, Australian-based Shaw and Partners Limited acquired a majority stake in Investment Services Group (ISG), the parent company of JMI Wealth. Following this acquisition, we decided to retire the JMI Wealth brand on 1 October 2025 and adopt the Shaw and Partners Financial Services Limited name in New Zealand.
This change reflects our enhanced access to global markets and research, through Shaw and Partners and in turn their parent company EFG International. Despite retiring the JMI Wealth name, the dedication, expertise, and client-focused approach you have come to expect will continue under the Shaw and Partners banner.
Shaw and Partners Financial Services is one of Australasia’s leading investment and wealth management firms. With a growing presence across Australia and now New Zealand, and more than NZD 47 billion in assets under advice, Shaw and Partners combines the intimacy of a boutique investment firm with the resources and scale of its parent company. Shaw and Partners is owned in turn by Swiss-based private bank EFG International, which manages approximately NZD 330 billion in assets and is listed on the Swiss Stock Exchange
This strategic partnership positions us strongly for long-term growth and enhanced client service across both countries.
