HOW WE PROTECT YOU
Security, Technology
& Compliance
In an ever-evolving digital landscape, we understand the critical importance of safeguarding our clients’ interests. Our compliance protocols, technology and security measures are designed to protect every part of your relationship with us.
Your assets, your information and your advice.
This focus allows our clients to have confidence that their data, investments and future are in trusted hands.
Where your assets are held.
We partner with established, regulated custodians and product issuers. Your investments are held with them, not with York.
| Partner | Their role | How your assets are held | Regulation |
|---|---|---|---|
| NetwealthInvestment platform | Custody, administration and reporting for your portfolio, across managed funds, managed accounts, listed securities and term deposits. | Held by Netwealth as custodian on your behalf, separately from York. Cash is held in trust accounts with an Australian bank. | Netwealth Investments Limited, AFSL 230975, regulated by ASIC. Part of ASX-listed Netwealth Group. |
| Morrison SecuritiesTrading and settlement | Executes, clears and settles trades in Australian listed securities. | Your shares are held on a CHESS-sponsored holding (HIN) registered in your own name. York does not hold your shares. | Market Participant of ASX, AFSL 241737, regulated by ASIC. |
| Generation LifeInvestment bonds | Issues the investment bonds we use for long-term saving, transferring wealth and investing for children. | Invested through Generation Life’s benefit funds, statutory funds kept separate under the Life Insurance Act 1995. | Registered life insurance company supervised by APRA, AFSL 225408. |
Some private investments are held in your own name or by an external custodian, and administered through the platform on a non-custodial basis.
Because your assets are held by regulated custodians separate from York, you always know where your wealth is held and who is responsible for it. That leaves you free to focus on your goals.
Your whole position, in one place.
We provide portfolio oversight through platforms designed for high-net-worth individuals, family offices and investors.
Online, at any time
Portfolio, transaction and tax information available through a secure online portal, with reports tailored to your preferences.
Multi-asset, multi-currency
Australian and international shares, managed funds, managed accounts and term deposits, with foreign currency accounts available to wholesale clients.
Consolidated tax reporting
An annual tax statement for each account, with direct access available to your accountant.
The whole picture
Private and non-custodial investments reported alongside your platform holdings, so your wealth is seen as one position.
Timely and accurate reporting supports informed decisions and keeps your wealth aligned with your goals. Access to a broad range of assets provides the flexibility to respond as markets change.
Protecting your information.
Client information is held on independently certified systems: our secure Personal Finance Portal, our CRM and Microsoft 365.
Our business systems
Email, documents and day-to-day systems run on Microsoft 365, with multi-factor authentication required to sign in.
Client files
Your Statements and Records of Advice, identification documents, wholesale investor certificates and file notes are held in York’s Personal Finance Portal, a system built for financial advisers and certified to ISO/IEC 27001. You can log in to view your finances in one place, on any device.
Enquiries and contact
Enquiries and day-to-day client contact are managed in our CRM, which runs on cloud services independently certified to ISO/IEC 27001 and audited under SOC 2 Type 2.
Only what we need
We collect the information needed to advise you and handle it under our Privacy Policy. We do not trade, rent or sell client information.
Where technology helps
Artificial intelligence is now part of how professional firms work. The question is no longer whether a firm uses these tools, but whether it uses them with discipline. We use them — currently Claude, ChatGPT and Grok — to support research, analysis, drafting, meeting notes and administration, through private business accounts under our own logins rather than public or shared tools. They let us prepare more thoroughly and spend more of our time on the judgement that matters to you. They support our work rather than replace it: every output is reviewed and checked by our team, and all advice is prepared, considered and given by a qualified adviser.
Where information is held
We use established providers to run our business, some of them located outside Australia, and client information may be processed by them. We review their security and data handling before we engage them, and we may add, change or remove providers over time. Our Third Party Service Providers and Data Handling Statement sets out how this works.
Cybersecurity is integral to protecting sensitive information and maintaining the trust you place in us.
Advice with oversight.
York Wealth Management Pty Ltd is a Corporate Authorised Representative of AD Advisory Services Pty Ltd, which holds an Australian Financial Services Licence. Our advice is given under that licence and its compliance framework.
Confidence begins with knowing where your wealth is held, how your information is protected and who is accountable for the advice you receive.
Start with a conversation.
If you are considering a long-term advisory relationship, the first step is a 20–30 minute conversation to understand whether we are the right fit for you and your family.
Three short questions. An adviser will be in touch shortly after.
Which best describes you?
