Aspiring to an ASX listing
Wealth coaching company Aspire International claims to be planning to list on the Australian Stock Exchange within five years as part of an ambitious global growth strategy.
The Perth-based company is targeting its initial global expansion at New Zealand, US, Canada and the UK, according to chief executive and co-founder Craig Turnbull.
“Our planned listing within five years will require a capitalisation of at least $100 million, which will require us to keep growing at 200 per cent per annum.”
He said the company is now in the “process of diversifying into the additional financial services areas of wealth planning and financial broking, funds management and SMSFs [self-managed superannuation funds]”.
“We believe it is now time to offer a suite of integrated services and advice associated with investing in assets with higher capital growth,” he said.
