"Although I was based in South East Asia for almost 38 years, I retained an active involvement in the Australian investment market through the medium of my private investment company, Wyllie Group Pty Ltd.
This Wyllie Group Profile provides a brief insight into the history and diverse operations of our company. It lists our achievements and defines our investment philosophy. The portfolio of past and present investments serves to demonstrate the extensive range as well as the depth of our business interests and capabilities. It is the sum of this collective experience that has enabled the company to so successfully pursue such a diversified investment programme throughout Australia.
This Wyllie Group Profile also introduces the people behind the name.
I have always believed that 'Whatever business you are in, you are in the people business and that is as good as you get'. Although our Head Office is small by most comparisons, it is staffed by a truly dedicated team of long serving professionals.
The sale of my principal investments in Hong Kong in 1991 enabled me to return permanently to Western Australia at the end of November 1992. Since then, I have concentrated my Australian investment focus through Wyllie Group Pty Ltd.
I hope that this Profile will provide an understanding of that focus and our diverse interests and capabilities."
