The Prosperity Management Framework
Mindset + Knowledge. Before products.
Sometimes the biggest breakthrough happens when you drop the mask. When you stop trying to look perfect, become willing to get uncomfortable and start questioning the way you have always thought.
The starting point
You cannot build a different life with the same version of yourself.
The same is true with money. Prosperity Management starts by improving the person making the decision, then expanding the quality of the decisions available.
01
Bespoke Mindset
Think differently about money, risk and opportunity.
Money decisions are not purely technical. They are shaped by beliefs, habits, identity, emotional triggers and assumptions about risk, scarcity, success and loss.
Bespoke mindset work helps identify the patterns behind your decisions so that reaction can be replaced with greater awareness, discipline and intention.
The objective is not positive thinking. It is to become a better decision-maker.
02
Knowledge
Understand the full opportunity set.
Knowledge means understanding the traditional and alternative asset classes available to you, how they behave, where their risks sit, how they can complement one another and where they fit within your overall strategy.
Wealth creation is not about chasing the next “best” investment. It is about understanding your options, managing risk, diversifying intelligently and thinking beyond the obvious.

Why Sport Trading fascinates me
A different market environment. The same discipline.
Sport Trading offers a different market environment where the focus is not simply on predicting a winner, but on process, data, discipline, execution and risk management.
It is one example of why a genuinely multi-asset perspective matters: the goal is not to force every opportunity into a portfolio, but to understand how an asset behaves, what role it can play and what risks must be controlled before capital is committed.
The real game is not only played in the market.
It is played within you. Become the person capable of managing the opportunities you want to create. That is where prosperity begins.
Who we help
Prosperity is personal. The decision framework is disciplined.
We work with entrepreneurs, high-earning professionals, athletes, established investors and families seeking clarity about wealth, risk and the decisions that matter most.
Entrepreneurs & business owners
The risk: wealth concentrated in one business, limited time and uncertain exit plans.
The value: a clearer view of personal wealth, liquidity, diversification and succession options.
High-earning professionals & senior executives
The risk: high earnings but lifestyle obligations and dependence on ongoing income.
The value: financial resilience, personal choice and disciplined long-term capital decisions.
Professional athletes
The risk: potentially unpredictable careers and a shorter earnings window.
The value: resilient financial foundations and an informed post-career transition.
Established investors & families
The risk: fragmented portfolios, unclear oversight and concerns about future generations.
The value: risk clarity, shared priorities and intergenerational planning.
Operating Principles
Capital should have a job before it has a product.
The aim is not to own more things. It is to understand what each holding is expected to do, what can go wrong and how it interacts with the rest of the balance sheet.
01
Understand Before Adding
Start with objectives, obligations, liquidity and the current balance sheet before adding another exposure.
02
Whole-Balance-Sheet View
Consider assets, currencies, jurisdictions, liabilities and liquidity as parts of the same capital picture.
03
Documented Decisions
Write down the reason for a decision, the risk being accepted and the evidence that would cause the view to change.
Institutional & ESG capability
Funding credibility requires more than a narrative.
MG Advisory connects capital strategy, investor readiness, ESG investment cases, risk and scenario analysis, governance and funding-engagement preparation. This capability sits within the Corporate Advisory proposition and remains distinct from personal prosperity management.
ESG Funding & Sustainable Finance
Turn ESG ambition into a financially credible investment case.
MG Advisory applies institutional finance and risk discipline to ESG funding, sustainable finance and investor readiness. The objective is to connect impact objectives with economics, capital structure, governance, measurable value creation and downside analysis.
Institutional proof point
ESG & climate risk through a finance and risk lens.
Maurizio has experience connecting ESG and climate themes with prudential risk, scenario analysis and financial decision-making, including workshop leadership at the 3rd ESG & Climate Risk in Quantitative Finance Conference.
Core principleESG should not sit beside the financial case. It should strengthen it.
The Opportunity Set
One balance sheet. Five distinct roles.
Diversification is not a count of how many assets you own. It is the deliberate use of different return drivers, liquidity profiles and risk exposures so that each holding earns its place.
01
Financial Assets
Equities, bonds, funds and liquid instruments assessed through return objectives, downside tolerance, liquidity and diversification.
02
Sport Trading
A data-led alternative strategy assessed through process, execution, risk limits, drawdown and performance governance.
03
Real Estate
Property evaluated as an operating investment: financing, cash flow, yield, capital expenditure, tax exposure, liquidity and exit scenarios.
04
Digital Assets
Selective exposure to digital assets, sized with explicit attention to custody, volatility, counterparty risk and the possibility of permanent loss.
05
Protective Assets
Gold, precious metals, cash reserves and selected defensive instruments considered for liquidity, reserve capacity and resilience under stress.
Our Method
A process for making fewer, better decisions.
MG Advisory begins with objectives and constraints, not with a product list. Each decision is tested against liquidity, drawdown, concentration, correlation, implementation risk and the conditions that would require a review.
01
Diagnose
Clarify goals, time horizon, liquidity needs, existing exposures and the risks that matter most.
02
Architect
Define a strategic allocation, risk budget and the role each asset class should perform.
03
Validate
Challenge assumptions through scenarios, downside analysis, due diligence and implementation checks.
04
Govern
Set review rules, thresholds and reporting so decisions remain disciplined when markets become emotional.
