What was lost, the machine that recovers it, the way across, and the size of the prize — in two and a half minutes. The four chapters below carry the detail.
1
The Opportunity
~4:32 · strategic context · the "why"
How managed accounts began as direct ownership, pivoted after FOFA into an efficiency engine, and lost the tax efficiency that made them good — and the real, addressable opportunity in recovering it.
2
The Engine — inside the investment machine
~3:47 · the "how it's built"
Life in 1's investment engine: a non-unitised scheme where investors own securities directly, six risk-profiled models built from manager mandates, an independent Responsible Entity, a global research partner, institutional execution, and access through every structure.
3
The Transition — from your portfolio to the model
~4:04 · onboarding · "coming across"
How an existing portfolio moves onto the model as a tax-aware glide path — review, deep analysis, the substitution discipline, and a multi-year plan that minimises sell-downs and optimises CGT: an IMA until it becomes your SMA.
4
The Prize — the size of the market
~3:17 · the commercial case · the "how big"
The market the machine was built for — an almost $300 billion managed-account segment compounding fast, the five layers in today's fee stack and the case for collapsing them, the money that hasn't moved for want of a clear pathway, and the trillion-dollar platform prize behind it all.
