Another month of the weird new world of Covid-19 and there are some things about our new lives that are starting to feel strangely normal.

In this inaugural episode of The SMSF Adviser Show, hosts Jo Cronolly and Aaron Dunn welcome Meg Heffron, to reveal how she’s adapting to a COVID-19 environment.

Our webinar on Government's superannuation changes in response to Covid-19 was a huge success. As part of our ongoing support to you we are offering you access to our FREE WEBINAR.

We are adapting our operations for the impact of COVID-19. By actively responding to the risks we both protect and support our staff as well as continue business as usual for you.

We are pleased to announce that industry leader Andrew Hamilton is joining our team as Director of Strategy & Growth.

You will notice we changed our branding and our website. There’s a reason for this, but before I dive into that, I probably need to provide you with a little background.
