We\u2019re looking for the future leaders of our profession,\u201d Browne explained.<\/p>\n<p>Club RT boasts a unique office, called The Clubhouse. It is a custom-built shared office space overlooking New Quay in Melbourne\u2019s Docklands. It provides free wi-fi, formal and informal client meeting spaces, a boardroom, secure lockers and a bar!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe saw that there was a need for a professional space where advisers who operate from their home office could bring clients,\u201d said Chris. &#8220;The Clubhouse provides that, but it\u2019s also about bringing the team together, to strategise and to bounce ideas off one-another. It really fits in with the Rising Tide team culture, which is about helping young advisers to grow and develop in a safe, supportive environment.\u201d<\/p>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">if (typeof(addthis_share) == \"undefined\"){ addthis_share = {\"passthrough\":{\"twitter\":{\"via\":\"riskinfonews\"}}};}\n\nvar addthis_config = {\"data_track_clickback\":false,\"data_track_addressbar\":true,\"data_track_textcopy\":true,\"ui_atversion\":\"300\"};\nvar addthis_product = 'wpp-3.5.9';\n<\/script><script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/s7.addthis.com\/js\/300\/addthis_widget.js#pubid=ra-53a3668b19172d69\"><\/script>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>July saw the official launch of a new business proposition for up-and-coming advisers, in the shape of Club RT, the brainchild of two former AFA Rising Star Award winners&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":162,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-119","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/162"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/magazine.riskinfo.com.au\/16\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
