Trusted with what matters.
Quiet oversight of the people, places, and assets that matter most, wherever they are in the world.
The Practice
Mi5Star International is a discreet advisory and operational partner to ultra-high-net-worth families and family offices across Asia-Pacific.
Where a private bank manages the portfolio and a law firm manages the structure, Mi5Star manages the physical world. Your residences, assets, travel, and security, coordinated through a single, accountable relationship. This is drawn from a background in UK Royalty Protection and specialist, intelligence-led operations.
We bring together what is so often fragmented across multiple providers, creating a seamless layer of oversight and accountability.
The result is continuity, confidence, and quiet assurance, wherever in the world you may be.

Built on experience and trust
Mi5Star was founded by Jon Graves, whose background lies in specialist UK policing, including Royalty Protection and high-risk operations.
That experience continues to shape how the practice operates today: an intelligence-led approach built on foresight, discipline, and sound judgement. Developed in environments where there was no room for error, those principles now support the families, offices, and organisations Mi5Star serves. It is why the practice operates selectively, discreetly, and only where trust and performance are paramount
