Trailer: From a kosher butcher shop in Carlton to a $2.7 billion empire

The Smorgon family is one of Australia’s great wealth stories. What started out as a Kosher Butcher in Carlton has grown into a family office worth about $2.7 billion.

In the upcoming episode of the rules of investing, I sit down with Peter Edwards – a fourth generation Smorgon and CEO of Victor Smorgon Group. 

We discuss:

  • The Smorgon family’s flair for disruption
  • The way a family office invests, and
  • The multi strat fund that has recently opened its doors to outside money.  

Here’s a preview of what you can expect.
