A Warm Welcome From Harry!

Hi, my name is Harry and I am a Financial Adviser with over 26 years of experience in Banking, Finance, and Insurance both in New Zealand and abroad. Leonie Coker is our Loans Processing Manager. She has over 40 years of experience working at Rural Bank, National Bank, ANZ, and ASB, with over half of these years as a lender in the business and personal markets.

I am a fully qualified Financial Advisor with Level 5 Financial Advice certifications in both Lending and Insurance. Leonie and I help our clients navigate their mortgages, personal insurance, and business insurance matters without stress.

Our ability to provide completely independent advice, customised to each client, is the foundation of our business. That’s what sets us apart. We give you simple, smart, independent financial advice with no hidden ties to banks or companies.

We understand that choosing a financial planner who genuinely helps you without selling anything can be daunting. That’s why we provide a complimentary initial consultation – it allows us to familiarise ourselves with each other so you can be confident in our service.

Our core business values:

  • Bespoke and independent
  • Friendly and approachable, caring
  • Honesty / Integrity
  • Professionalism and knowledge
  • Absolute confidentiality of your information
