This is an initiative of the TRI Health and Wellbeing Committee. At the beginning of each year, we randomly survey TRI staff and occupants to find out what's causing the most wellbeing challenges, with finance and time management regularly appearing at the top of the results. This finance fit series has been designed to simplify financial management and give you tips to break through the financial fog. No RSVP is required for these sessions and you are welcome to attend all or just the relevant sessions for your needs.

Andrew Courtney - Presenter Biography

Masters in Commerce (Applied Finance) 2012
Director of Plenitude Wealth

Andrew Courtney is a proud father, loving husband and founder of the first socially conscious wealth management firm that donates 10% of all its revenue to initiatives designed to tackle poverty. This company is called Plenitude Wealth. Andrew was previously a biomedical research scientist who co-authored multiple scientific publications, the most notable of which is a publication in Nature. His passions for finance, achieving financial freedom (do what you want, when you want, wherever you want with whomever you want), and making a positive difference in the financial landscape of the world led him to pursue a career outside of medical research and into the financial services industry. His company Plenitude Wealth is focussed on creating a philanthropic movement that is devoted to solving (or at least making a massive dent) world poverty. Leading by example and showing the wider public and businesses how they can give back is one of the main drivers Andrew has in his life. Andrew specialises in the structure and strategy of finance which ultimately leads to what he coins portfolio synergy. An avid reader of personal development and business books, Andrew also has a passion to educate individuals and families about the intricacies of building a solid financial foundation which underpins making their compelling vision for the future come to life. His motto in life is – live with purpose.
