In this episode of The Exchange, Ryan Loehr sits down with Perry Cross and Tom Ray, Co-Founders of Accessible Homes Australia, to explore one of the most overlooked corners of Australian social infrastructure, specialist disability accommodation.

Perry sustained a spinal cord injury at 19 and spent decades in a system that wasn't built for him. Today he lives independently in a purpose-designed, voice-activated apartment on the Gold Coast. It's not just a better home. It's a different life.

Together, Perry and Tom break down how their clustered independent living model can save the NDIS up to $75,000 per person per year compared to conventional care arrangements, a counterintuitive finding the system has been slow to embrace. They also walk through their newest development in Hervey Bay: a self-sufficient village with onsite hydrotherapy, adapted gymnasium, and 24-hour care, built for people who want independence, not an institution.

If you've ever thought about impact investing, social infrastructure, or simply what it means to build something that matters, this episode is for you.

Most business owners aren't ready to sell.

Not because they don't want to. Because the structure, the documents, and the conversations that make a deal work, they never happened.

Managing Partner Tim Whybourne sat down with Christine Fleer and Rebecca Zwier of Arnold Bloch Leibler, the firm behind 40% of Australia's AFR Rich List, to talk about what exit-ready actually looks like.

The short version: the families who get the best outcomes start preparing years before anyone makes an offer.

They discuss in this episode of The Exchange:

→ The structural traps that quietly cost sellers at the deal table

→ What the ATO is coming for, and what to fix before they do

→ Why you should be doing due diligence on your buyer, not just the other way around

→ How to pass on wealth to the next generation without taking away their reason to work for it.

If you own a business, or advise someone who does, this one is not to be missed.

In this episode of The Exchange, Tim Whybourne sits down with Jonathan Belz, Global CEO and Co-Founder of BFA Global Investors, an investment manager built to give Asia-Pacific family offices and sophisticated investors direct access to top-tier US venture managers and transformative private companies. Jonathan brings more than twenty years of experience across Goldman Sachs, Credit Suisse, and the Victor Smorgon Group, and has been behind some of the most notable private market allocations in Australia, including early positions in Anthropic, OpenAI, and SpaceX.

Together, they explore why the most significant value creation of our lifetime is happening in private markets, how AI is compounding on top of technology cycles that are still far from mature, and why the opportunity beneath the hyper-scalers is larger than most investors appreciate. They also unpack the structure and investment thesis behind BFA's Vintage Fund, covering fund selection, co-investment access, return targets, and how to think about liquidity over a five-to-ten-year horizon.
