Announcer is one of Australia's leading financial advisory firms. We've helped more than 2000 Australian families with their financial affairs with a combined asset base in excess of $500 million.

Announcer has been working to achieve the goals of individuals since 1996. In that time much has changed in the world and notably in the areas of financial services. Over this time and almost without exception the most common reason for engaging Announcer is simply, "to get help".

To clarify what kind of help is required, the most common response is to, "help me/us be financially well organised", and the most often quoted reason for this request is that; we are too busy with career, family, socially! Or, I cannot/have not ever budgeted! And, I tend to put off making personal financial decisions. Or quite often, I am afraid of bad or biased advice!

Here at Announcer we are constantly asked by the industry, the media and our peers," How do you do it? "The answer is powerful in its simplicity - we focus on fundamentals, pure and simple.

Let's give you an idea, when any of us are asked about budgeting, we immediately bemoan our unnecessary discretionary spending (impulsive buying), which can of course can be controlled through our proven budget plan. However it is our biggest expenses such as, income tax and loan repayments that are forgotten. At Announcer we have a tax team and a mortgage team that focus entirely on delivering real savings every day.

Another fundamental is the fact that we "take action" where others simply talk. Not only will we review your insurance, we will draft and execute your Will and store it in our safe deposit service whilst informing your next of kin along the way.

As father of three and one half of a working partnership with my wife Annelise, I wanted something that would deliver for my family, with a clear and concise direction, in a professional environment, that catered for all stages of our lives. I figured if it was going to be good enough for us, then it would be a great start for you!

I am increasingly seeing the value in having a range of services available for business owners.

Feel free to bring the kids and check out the creche.
