What makes Macquarie different?
Key to Macquarie's success is a unique management style that provides individual businesses with a balance between operating freedom, controls on risk limits and observance of professional standards. This philosophy encourages a sense of ownership and entrepreneurial endeavor among our people, and has produced a stream of major financial innovations throughout Macquarie's history.
Macquarie's growth strategy is to expand selectively, seeking only to enter markets where we perceive there is a genuine opportunity to add real value. Two of the primary advantages this offers are:
- flexibility to enter new markets as opportunities arise
- freedom to respond to the special requirements of individual markets around the world.
Our international presence reflects this philosophy, with individual businesses operating in discrete markets in 24 countries. In many cases our strategy when entering new countries is to establish an alliance with a leading local provider. This approach enables us to combine our technical expertise and specialist skills with the market presence and infrastructure of a leading local player.
