Our Heritage

Founded on Principles

Sterling Partners was established in 1987 by William Sterling, who believed that true wealth advisory required more than financial acumen — it required deep understanding, absolute discretion, and genuine partnership.

Three generations later, these principles remain our foundation. We have evolved with the times while preserving what matters: the personal relationships and unwavering commitment to our clients' interests that define our practice.

Today, we continue to serve families across New Zealand and beyond, helping them navigate the opportunities and challenges that come with significant wealth.
