McAlistair Capital

Michael M. Campbell - Origination

My career began on the commodities desk of a boutique stockbroking firm in Melbourne, where I specialised in hedging exposures for mid-tier agricultural organisations. From there, I had the privilege of founding and scaling what has become a significant, diversified financial services group. During this tenure, I acted as Lead Portfolio Manager and was responsible for sourcing, analysing, and managing a series of strategic acquisitions. After a stint as Director of Strategic Acquisitions for a Family Office, I am back to working independently, advising a curated portfolio of high-quality enterprises

Today, my focus at McAlistair Capital is twofold. While I am known for connecting high-calibre advisers with M&A opportunities, my work increasingly involves bridging the gap between institutional capital and growth-oriented enterprises. I enjoy solving complex problems for founders and witnessing the material impact that a well-executed transaction has on a business’ valuation and the founder's lifestyle. This is what drives my commitment to the sector.

Sapientia Tabernum

A lot of people think Taberna just means a modern tavern. But in the ancient Roman Forum, the Tabernae were the highly specialised workshops where the empire’s most sophisticated commerce was engineered. They were the private domains where Rome’s elite dealmakers and financiers sat to structure the trade routes and capital allocations that built the ancient world.

I chose Sapientia Tabernum - The Workshop of Wisdom - because that is exactly what McAlistair Capital is for the modern wealth sector.

I am not a high-volume, loud brokerage house. I provide a specialised, ongoing M&A workshop. I bring the deep market intelligence (the Sapientia) and the secure structural environment (the Tabernum) required to engineer complex transactions for financial servic operators.

In a market full of noise, I prefer to operate like the ancient the dealmakers - quietly, with absolute discretion, and perhaps a touch of in vino veritas
