At Meria Capital, our approach is built upon fundamental principles that have guided distinguished families for generations: discretion, expertise and unwavering commitment to long-term value creation. We believe that exceptional wealth requires exceptional stewardship, demanding not merely technical competence but genuine partnership rooted in shared values and mutual trust.
Our approach to client relationships was profoundly shaped by our founder, Michał Nowak, whose passing in May 2024 marked the end of a remarkable career spanning four decades in private wealth management. Michał’s vision of combining institutional-quality resources with intimate, personalised service continues to guide our practice today.
Beginning his career abroad at a revered Swiss private bank in the 1990s, Michał witnessed firsthand how globalisation was creating new complexities for wealthy families: multiple residences, cross-border investments and increasingly sophisticated tax and regulatory environments that demanded more comprehensive solutions. Following this instinct, he left the world of private banking to work directly with high-net-worth clients to preserve and enhance their estates. This chapter of Michał’s career took him around the world, allowing him to deepen his perspective and cultivate a uniquely prestigious and expansive network.
After decades away, Michał returned home with a new vision. In founding Meria Capital, Michał established what he called “principled partnership” – the belief that true wealth management required genuine alignment between advisor and client interests. He often spoke of wealth as a responsibility requiring careful stewardship, not merely an asset to be managed. This philosophy attracted families who shared his long-term perspective and values-driven approach.
Michał’s influence extends beyond our investment methodology to our fundamental approach to client relationships. He insisted that every family deserved direct access to senior professionals, refusing the industry trend toward junior relationship managers. His commitment to this principle remains embedded in our practice today, ensuring every client benefits from seasoned expertise and personal attention.
His legacy reminds us daily that true wealth management is ultimately about people – understanding their dreams, concerns and aspirations while providing the technical expertise and emotional support necessary for confident decision-making across generations.
We deliberately limit our client base to ensure every family receives the depth of attention their wealth demands. This selective approach enables us to provide institutional-quality resources with the personalised service traditionally associated with single-family offices.
We maintain commitment to innovation and excellence, regularly evaluating and enhancing our service delivery capabilities. This includes investment in technology, professional development and service expansion to meet evolving client needs.
Complete confidentiality forms the foundation of every client relationship. We understand that privacy is not merely a preference but an essential requirement for internationally prominent families. Our operational procedures, technology systems and staff training all prioritise absolute discretion in every interaction.
