We’re not tied to the big banks and product providers (approximately 60% of Australian Financial Planners are).

Product providers may pay a commission for some financial products.
Commission payments may be either initial or ongoing. Initial commissions are generally a once-off payment made when a new business is placed or additional contributions are made to a financial product. Ongoing commissions are paid whilst you hold the product.
Where possible we may agree to refuse to receive these commissions, rebate these commissions to your account, or use the commissions to offset some or all of your agreed fee for service.
Should you cancel an insurance contract within the first two years the Advisor reserves the right to invoice you an amount equal to the amount clawed back by the product provider.
