Edward Goodchild

Spear’s Review

Edward Goodchild describes the various advisory roles within the world of private wealth as ‘seats at a round table’. And, he adds, ‘I’ve sat at every one’. That gives him a broad perspective, and helps account for his reputation as a prodigious and affable connector within the space.

Goodchild’s varied career has included stints as a stock-picker, portfolio manager and investment consultant. He remains a chartered fellow of the CISI but, through Zendht Venture Studio, has a range of interests – all united by their connection to the world of HNWs.

Through Chawker he continues to offer investment consulting and structuring advice to charities and family foundations; Deputy Finance is a real estate finance platform; Arbor Steel is a cyber fintech providing solutions to help companies and individuals to share privileged documents securely; and Lamwyk is a digital journal and networking business that aims to ‘build business connections to defeat silos’.
