Flinders Foundation has appointed Koda Capital as its investment management partner, reinforcing its commitment to ensuring donor funds are managed responsibly, sustainably and for maximum long-term impact.

As Australia’s largest independent wealth advisory firm, Koda Capital has an established track record advising many of the nation’s leading philanthropic foundations, medical research institutes and non-profit organisations. Its specialist expertise in endowment-style investing aligns with Flinders Foundation’s long-term approach to growing and protecting donor funds, ensuring they continue to deliver lasting benefits for patients, research and healthcare into the future.

Flinders Foundation Executive Director Ross Verschoor said the partnership reflected the Foundation’s commitment to honouring donors’ generosity through strong stewardship and responsible investment. 

The partnership supports Flinders Foundation’s commitment to strong governance and financial sustainability, providing donors with confidence that their generosity is being managed with care, transparency and accountability. 

As the Foundation continues to invest in world-leading research, advanced medical equipment, and exceptional patient care, the partnership with Koda Capital will help ensure philanthropy continues to create meaningful health outcomes for generations to come. 

Chris Wilson, Partner at Koda Capital’s Philanthropy & Social Capital division, said they were proud to partner with Flinders Foundation to help strengthen its long-term impact for patients and the community. 

“Koda Capital is proud to partner with Flinders Foundation as their investment adviser. It’s a privilege to work alongside an organisation doing so much for the community, helping provide patients with the best possible care, access to world-leading medical equipment, and support for some of the most critical research in the country,” Chris said.

“Koda manages over $4 billion for philanthropic foundations and charities across Australia, and we’ve been consistently impressed by the calibre and professionalism of the Flinders Foundation team, and the clarity of their ambition.  

“We look forward to partnering with them as they build their endowment, helping ensure their mission – to help people live longer, healthier and happier lives, without exception – continues for decades to come.”
