Will Hamilton has enshrined a simple belief at Hamilton Wealth Partners: Most financial advice practices pay lip service to client experience, yet it makes all the difference in the eyes of clients.
In this episode, he shares how HWP differentiates through hyper-personalised service, from capping advisers at 50 clients to running large-scale client events that function more like weddings than seminars.
He also gets into the harder conversations, how he manages complex family dynamics, what he screens for when acquiring practices, and the delicate balance of incorporating AI to expand capacity without compromising on service.
Finally, he shares his view on markets. Australian equities are at their lowest weighting in the firm's history, and he explains why he thinks the market is overpaying for AI.
