Macquarie aims to promote long term profitability and drive superior and sustainable shareholder value while meeting stakeholders’ expectations of sound corporate governance.  Throughout its history, Macquarie has encouraged its staff and businesses to pursue opportunities, while operating within a strong risk management framework.   

On 10 December 1969, Macquarie’s predecessor organisation, Hill Samuel Australia, opened its doors with three staff and an ambition to provide advisory and investment banking services of an international standard to the Australian market.

Now we are a global business operating across 27 countries and with specialist expertise in areas such as resources, agriculture and commodities, energy and infrastructure, with a particular knowledge of the Asia-Pacific region.

Since its inception, Macquarie has differentiated itself by focusing on new opportunities, both in product and geography, progressively building expertise in these disciplines and expanding into adjacent areas.
