Bachelor of Business from University of Queensland
Diploma of Financial Planning from Deakin University
Certified Financial Planner™ (CFP™)
Justice of the Peace (JP)
Specialist courses in Self Managed Super Funds from Kaplan
Starting off his financial planning career in 2000 – the start of the ‘Tech Bust’- after a career in hospitality and property management, Fergus, joined a semi-government superannuation fund’s Financial Planning arm as a Para-Planner where he was able to grow his superannuation knowledge and strategy development. By 2004 Fergus had reached the position of Regional Financial Planning Manager. Fergus saw that there were only a handful of independent financial planning firms operating in Australia, and was passionate about providing clients with unbiased advice that was in the client’s best interests.

So where to? The natural progression was to establish with Margaret an Independent Financial Planning firm that was focused not on the ‘sale-of-product’ to increase revenue, but on helping clients to achieve their financial and life-style objectives with greater certainty.

Interests
Spending time with family.
Kayaking around Sydney’s beautiful harbour and now and then participating in the 111km Hawkesbury Canoe Classic.
Watching Rugby.

]]> I work with a select number of clients so I can give you the attention you expect. Our goal at Quantum Financial is to provide you with the highest level of tailored service. To add far more value than you pay for with our fixed fees.

As well as being an independent financial planner, I am a qualified CA, CPA,  Chartered Tax Analyst, GAICD, Self Managed Super Fund expert and a lawyer. That means you get the very best financial advice across your entire financial situation.

I am very good at what I do. I don’t mean to be arrogant in saying that. Rather, it means I truly care about what we do for our clients.

But all work and no play would make me a dull Financial Planner. When not managing your money, I love adventures including climbing Machu Picchu, backpacking Africa & India; walking the Kokoda Track, and the Palm Beach to Whale Beach Big Swim.
