Coastal roots, global reach
From Umhlanga and Umhlali on the KZN North Coast, we manage wealth for individuals and companies who are astute about money and serious about the life they’ve built.

Where financial guidance is family guidance
The Robert Group was established in 2010 by the Robert family. Having built their experience at Liberty Life, our founders saw the need for a truly independent advisory firm — one free from the constraints of a single institution’s products.
That belief still guides us. A robust succession plan now carries the firm forward under a dynamic executive team — protecting the trust, independence and personal service that define TRG for generations to come.
Truly independent
Founded free of any single institution’s products — so we choose the best of the market on your behalf.
A family firm
Built by the Robert family in 2010; today you’re not an account number, you’re part of the family.
Local, with global reach
The intimacy of a North Coast practice with the reach of a global investment desk.
Invested in our community — and the next generation
We believe a thriving practice should help build a thriving country, and we’re committed to playing an active part in the economic and social upliftment of South Africa.
Through internship and training programmes with the Financial Services SETA, we give young graduates real industry experience — cultivating the next generation of financial professionals.
