Our story and people

We’ve been investing since 1996 but one thing never changes it’s all about the people.

Our Story

Investing in Australia

Clime was created to help Australians understand, manage and expand their wealth

Since our inception in 1996 by Founder & Chairman John Abernethy, we have grown consistently underpinned by a culture of integrity, transparency, conviction and progress.

Listed on the ASX in 2001, our team of investment professionals have been helping more and more Australians invest confidently. We are an established company with a future focus.

We believe in investing in Australia’s future, to support small business owners, innovators and founders.

We ultimately believe in building a better Australia.
