Ashley Murphy 

Partner, Wealth Specialist (wholesale advice only)

Why I do what I do


Ashley Murphy is authorised by IMFG to provide Wholesale advice only.


Asley specializes in solving the complex financial puzzles faced by "Aussies in America" and "Americans in Australia." With tri-citizenship in the United States, Australia, and the UK, Ashley’s expertise is not just professional—it is deeply personal. He understands the friction of cross-border living because he has lived it.


Ashley is one of the few financial advisors globally to be formally qualified in two jurisdictions, holding both the U.S. Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP®) designation and the Australian Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning. This dual perspective allows him to bring rare clarity, compliance, and strategic structure to the global lives of his clients. As of 2026, Ashley and his team manage over $140M in assets for 106 high-net-worth households.


Beyond his practice, Ashley is a recognized leader in the evolution of international planning. He is the Founder and Executive Director of the Global Financial Planning Institute (GFPI) and previously served as a professor in the CFP® programs at UC Berkeley Extension and Golden Gate University. A frequent speaker at industry conferences including the FPA and XY Planning Network, his insights have been featured in The Wall Street Journal and Financial Advisor Magazine.


A few things about me:


Originally from Brisbane, Ashley returned to his roots in 2025, where he lives with his wife, Eliza, and their two daughters. An avid cyclist and self described futurist, he remains passionate about the intersection of architecture, renewable energy, and global demographics.
