What Does Everest Wealth Do?

Everest Wealth is a South African alternative investment and wealth management business that focuses on private (unlisted) investment opportunities, rather than public-market unit trusts.

These solutions are structured for individuals, trusts, and companies seeking:

  • Predictable outcomes
  • Structured costs
  • A long-term investment horizon

Established in 2002

Everest Wealth Management (Pty) Ltd is an authorised Financial Services Provider
(FSP 795 – Category I, II & IIA).

Certain Everest portfolios reference an assets-under-management target of approximately R1.5 billion, reflecting institutional scale and long-term credibility.

What Are Unlisted Share Investments?

Unlisted shares are investments in companies or holding structures that are not traded on public exchanges such as the JSE or international stock markets.

Because these investments are not publicly traded:

  • They are not repriced daily
  • They are not driven by market sentiment or global headlines
  • They typically operate on fixed contractual terms, usually five years

In Everest's voluntary income and growth portfolios, investors subscribe for unlisted instruments (often preference shares), and returns are paid as dividends rather than interest.

This structure is central to both stability and tax efficiency.

Designed Outside the Stock Market

Everest Wealth investments are not listed on public exchanges and are therefore not directly affected by daily market volatility.

Your investment is not repriced every time there is:

  • A geopolitical announcement
  • An interest-rate headline
  • A global market reaction

This allows for stable, double-digit returns, fixed for the five-year contract term, without the emotional volatility of public markets.

These investments are built for income planning — not market speculation.

My Role and FSCA Authority

I am authorised under FAIS to advise and provide intermediary services on shares, including unlisted share-based investments, under the relevant FAIS product sub-category (commonly referred to as the FSCA "1.8 shares" authority).

This allows me to structure and advise on these investments properly and compliantly, with full consideration of:

  • Income needs
  • Tax treatment
  • Trust and estate planning

Set Your Income Goal Using the 12.8% Product

Once you understand the difference between income options, the next practical question is often:

"How much capital do I actually need to generate my required monthly income?"

This calculator allows you to:

  • Set a monthly income goal
  • See how much capital is required using the 12.8% income-focused product
  • Separate income capital from growth capital more effectively

This is especially useful for planning income without unnecessarily overcommitting capital.
