Stephanie Brobbey 

Stephanie Brobbey is a financial activist and practitioner seeking to mobilise private capital in service of a just economy. She practised as a private wealth lawyer in the City of London for a decade, during which she gained an outstanding reputation in the private wealth industry and was named one of eprivateclient’s Top 35 Under 35 in 2020 and 2018.  

After becoming deeply politicised around her role as an actor in the global economy, in September 2021 Stephanie launched the Good Ancestor Movement, a social purpose business which exists to disrupt the mainstream wealth advisory industry by challenging traditional ideas about the economy, excessive wealth accumulation and tax minimisation. Stephanie’s mission is to leverage the power of private capital around the world to help accelerate the just transition to a regenerative economy. 

Alongside her team at the Good Ancestor Movement, Stephanie supports wealth holders primarily based in the UK, Europe, and North America to transform their practices around wealth, tax, and redistribution. In recognition of her work, Stephanie was elected as an Ashoka Fellow in 2023 and as a fellow of the Just Economy Institute’s 2023-2024 cohort. Stephanie was named in the inaugural Spear’s Power List, as one of the 100 most influential people in the world of private wealth.
