Testimonials

Anne and Alison are absolutely wonderful advisors. Friendly and attentive customer service, brilliant market knowledge and excellent financial results.

Katrina Nelson

I have been a client at Ord Minnett since 1993.

Since retirement in 2012, Anne Williamson, who was later joined by Alison Kolb, have been our SMFS advisers. Upon retirement I moved nearly all of my Superannuation fund into this SMSF, but for comparison purposes I left a small amount in the then Q Super.

Since moving the superannuation into our SMSF at Ord Minnett, by my analysis, after paying annual pensions slightly above the ATO requirements from the SMSF, the audited fund value at the end of the last financial year has grown by more than 40%. The notional amount left in Q Super, for the same time, after taking a pension of the same proportion for each year would have increased by 2%. I firmly believe the advice of Anne and Alison on portfolio structure and the asset allocation within the portfolio has been the major factor influencing this superior growth.

Further, although the PARS fee is a little higher than a Q Super annual contribution the remittance of franking credits from the ATO to our SMSF, something the does not occur in Q Super, easily covers the difference.

Also, I must commend Ord Minnett on its web presence and secure access, their research teams, their analyses and their recommendations, and Ords' timely distribution of financial information sets.

Finally, our advisers, Anne and Alison, are always easily contactable by phone or email to discuss and provide cogent timely advice on all relevant financial matters.
