BRILLIANT INVESTMENT GROUP

At the Brilliant Investment Group (BIG), we are committed to Brilliant Investment Thinking—a philosophy rooted in collaboration and innovation. 


As a collection of four dynamic companies—Wattle Partners (wealth management), Atchison (asset consulting), Capital Outcomes (public relations, marketing, and design), and The Inside Network (publishing, events, and community)—we share a common mission: Brilliant Investment Thinking. Shared. Our goal is to lead financial services into the next era.

Our shared vision drives us to provide exceptional solutions tailored to the unique needs of our clients. We believe in fostering strong relationships and empowering individuals and businesses to achieve their financial goals.

At BIG, our values define who we are and how we operate:

  • We are friends with everyone.

  • We are innovative.

  • We outwork the rest.

  • We always do it as a team.

Together, we are transforming the financial services landscape, creating an environment in which our clients and communities can thrive.

The Why Behind BIG:
A Forward-Looking and Innovative Vision

As founders of Brilliant Investment Group (BIG), we have always believed in creating a legacy that redefines what financial services can deliver. From the inception of our journey, we envisioned a company that would not only guide individuals and families toward financial success but also elevate the entire wealth management industry to a new standard of excellence and innovation.

We are both professional financial planners, driven by the need to create a legacy of leaving the industry in a much better state than when we started in it. Our shared passion for financial literacy led us to recently write a best-selling book, The Golden Years, further solidifying our commitment to empowering individuals with the knowledge to take control of their financial futures.

BIG was born from a simple yet profound idea: Brilliant Investment Thinking Shared. Let us break this down:

  • Brilliant: Because what we offer is not ordinary. It is exceptional, unique and transformative. Brilliance reflects our commitment to delivering solutions that stand out, creating extraordinary value for our clients.

  • Investment: This is our world, the space we choose to operate in and excel at. Investment is more than just financial – it’s about investing in people, relationships and opportunities that have lasting impact.

  • Thinking: Every idea we propose undergoes rigorous scrutiny. It is challenged, debated and discussed to ensure it meets the highest standards. This reflects our intellectual rigor and dedication to innovation.

  • Shared: Ideas are more powerful when they are shared. We share our insights widely – with clients, across media, through social platforms and within our team – to inspire and empower those around us.

Through our commitment to these principles, we’ve created a platform that goes beyond wealth creation – it’s about fostering lasting impact and empowering our clients to live fulfilled lives.

From the launch of Wattle Partners, offering bespoke wealth management solutions, to the purchase of Atchison, an institutional-grade asset consultant with a long and rich history, to the transformation of Shed Connect into a full-service marketing agency with a repositioned name to reflect this – Capital Outcomes. Additionally, we founded The Inside Network, a community, publication and event business spanning three distinct pools of capital: investors, advisers and institutions. BIG has also made a non-controlling strategic investment into the RASK network, supporting Owen in his journey to become Australia's leading finance podcaster. We’ve embraced the challenges of entrepreneurship to create an ecosystem that supports every facet of financial well-being. At each step, we’ve remained focused on the differing needs of our clients, adapting and evolving as the world around us changes.

Looking ahead, we are more committed than ever to leading the way in financial services. Whether it’s creating new ways to educate and learn about investment topics, redefining retirement planning, or expanding our reach, our journey has only just begun. We invite you to join us in shaping a future where brilliance is not just an aspiration but a reality.
