Our Investment Beliefs

  • 1. The cost of managing investments is an important component of investments returns

    We focus on keeping investments costs as low as possible with the result that more of our clients’ funds in invested to earn returns. What matters most is your investment return after all fees and taxes.

  • 2. Markets price correctly

    We believe in the power of the markets to correctly set the price of an asset, with the result that is not possible to beat the market over the medium to long term, or for that matter in the short term.

  • 3. Active vs Passive Management

    It is difficult to identify and secure active managers who consistently captures excess returns after cost, hence our belief that Index funds (Passive Management) provide better value for our clients.

  • 4. Medium to long term focus

    Decisions taken with a medium to long term horizon will provide better outcomes for our clients. Investors should focus their investments on achieving medium- and long-term goals and should ignore short term fluctuations in the market.

  • 5. Diversification

    Diversification is a technique that reduces risk by allocating investments amongst various financial instruments, industries, and other categories. It aims to maximise the return by investing in different areas that each should react differently to changes in market conditions. Index funds over diversification and transparency.

KiwiSaver

KiwiSaver is a voluntary savings initiative that has been in existence since 2008. It is designed to help New Zealanders save for their retirement. It can also be used as a deposit to buy your first home.

When giving KiwiSaver advice, it is not practical to have an agency agreement with every provider. Instead, we prefer to be selective and aim for top performers across key categories that help to meet client objectives. Currently, our preferred provider is Superlife.

Our preferred provider list is reviewed on an ongoing basis, and we are always surveying the wider market to see if there is anyone new that should be included in the list.

Anthony & Mercia

"Speaking to Andre, is worth your while and takes a lot of the stress out of the process and a lot of time researching and trying to find out what is the right information. Having someone that knows the "inside ropes" of how the banks look at your situation makes a huge difference. We would probably have applied a couple of times on our own before we would have succeeded with the banks. Having a financial adviser means you get the knowledge to get to the end result faster."
