International shares

Features and benefits

Through Macquarie Private Wealth, you can gain direct access to global market opportunities.

• Access to superior market knowledge through Macquarie’s global relationships and research capabilities
• Award winning local service backed by international shares expertise
• Access to sectors that are not available in the Australian market, such as aerospace, automobiles, microchip technology and pharmaceuticals
