First Sentier Group establishes as umbrella brand reflecting evolution as a multi-affiliate global investment manager

SYDNEY and NEW YORK, July 31, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- First Sentier Investors, a global investment manager, announced today the establishment of First Sentier Group, in response to its evolution as a multi-affiliate asset manager, and to provide greater clarity around its brand hierarchy and identity, worldwide.  

Headquartered in Sydney, First Sentier Group manages US$140.5 billion in assets globally as of June 30, 2025, and now serves as the overarching umbrella brand supporting its affiliate investment teams of AlbaCore Capital Group, First Sentier Investors, FSSA Investment Managers, Igneo Infrastructure Partners, RQI Investors and Stewart Investors.   

First Sentier Group has unveiled a new visual identity and brand narrative across all markets.  

Lauren Prendiville, Global Head of Distribution and Marketing, says: "Our business has evolved over time to become a global group of affiliate investment teams, so it's exciting to reflect this in our new identity and to be able to strengthen our brand presence worldwide. 

"First Sentier Group brings together and supports our distinct affiliate investment teams to deliver meaningful investment outcomes for our clients. At the same time, they continue to benefit under one agile operating model, while preserving their investment autonomy.  

As the umbrella brand, we have refreshed our visual identity and we believe our brand promise of 'Better Strategies. Better Service. Better Possibilities,' emphasizes our client-centric and collaborative approach to achieving our clients' goals." 

The launch of the First Sentier Group brand also provides the opportunity for the organization to clearly delineate from its affiliate investment team, First Sentier Investors, the name previously used to describe the umbrella group. As an affiliate, First Sentier Investors will maintain its current brand under the First Sentier Group, and will focus on Australian equities, listed infrastructure, property securities, cash and fixed income. 

Across the Group, there is no change in the investment teams, their investment processes or autonomy as a result of the brand update.
