Omniwealth managing director Matthew Kidd said that Ashly Mani, who holds a master of applied finance and an engineering degree, represents the “future of financial advisers”.
“Degree qualified and fee for service will, without doubt, be the norm in the not too distant future,” Mr Kidd said.
Mr Mani, who will be based in the Sydney office, said he was attracted to the non-aligned nature of the business.
“Moving to a group like Omniwealth was a very easy decision. I’m not a fan of product-based large institutions, as I want to deliver genuine, non-aligned, fee for service advice to my clients,” he said.
“Being a business owner and good adviser is a hard balance to get right, but the team at Omniwealth make it feel seamless.”
Ominwealth offers financial planning, property investment, mortgage and accounting services.
I just wasted 3 minutes of my life I will never get back reading this useless article…
Tomorrow night Budget night and this is the most news worthy thing you could write about…
Knowing people who have been involved in the horizons program it certainly doesn’t give you the necessary experience to run your own fee for service business… Good luck to him though.
Why is this news? There have been hundreds of AMP Horizons graduates since it started in 2008, and they have ended up in all sorts of different roles and companies, mostly outside AMP. Is there something unique about this situation?
And this got media attention…….
