We are client-focused and provide transparency in our financial services and financial products.

When it comes to helping clients with financial planning on the Gold Coast, the most important thing we can do is be proactive and work alongside them. This is the Centaur Financial Difference. Client care is paramount. We are constantly talking to our clients, listening to them, and being proactive, not just on a financial basis but on a personal basis. We develop deep personal connections stemming from their personal well-being, not just their financial well-being. We continue to work with them over the years to ensure their financial plan supports their lifestyle needs and ambitions.

Over many years, Centaur has developed an industry-leading approach to delivering quality personalised financial advice and solutions. We approach financial planning with a holistic advice model, and we focus only on what we excel in. We strive to be the very best at financial planning rather than adequate in multiple related services, like accounting or business advice. We understand that what you value will ultimately be the driver for your personal and financial objectives, so every plan created is uniquely tailored to suit each client.

Perhaps you have just started a family, are about to buy your first house or have made an essential step in your career.

Financial planning starts with professional financial advice.

Tailored financial advice is provided, including which Australian financial services and products will best maximise their investments to help you reach your objectives.

Achieve Your Goals with Our Proven Financial Planning Process

The financial planning process is key to any successful strategy. It comprises six essential steps that help shape individualised strategies for our clients. We follow this industry-leading formula to ensure each base is covered; to provide the absolute best advice to our clients, to follow up, and to continue to provide outstanding service once the strategy is in place.

  • to establish and define the relationship with the client,
  • to collect the client’s information and ascertain their financial goals,
  • to analyse and assess the client’s current financial status,
  • to develop the financial planning recommendations and present them to the client,
  • to implement the client’s financial planning recommendations, and finally,
  • to review the client’s financial situation or needs and revise the plan

If you aspire to retire in comfort, to leave a sizable legacy and nest egg to your children and grandchildren, to alleviate financial burdens and gain peace of mind through financial security, then seeking the aid of a Gold Coast financial planner will be beneficial.

Put simply; financial planning will assist you in achieving your life goals. At its core, financial planning is about formulating personal strategies to support your objectives. Yet, it’s so much more. Financial planning will also serve in defining and set short-term and long-term financial goals. It will help keep you motivated and committed to being money-smart, and it will help you set performance standards. Financial planning will also provide a path to aid decision-making and nurture positive economic outcomes. The result isn’t only financial benefits but mental and emotional health benefits as well.

In 2017, Investment Trends found that around 2.6 million Australians sought financial advice in 2016, yet 48% of Australians have an unmet advice need. If you’re one of the 48%, who have not yet sought or received the advice you desire, now’s the perfect time to contact us at Centaur Financial Services. We have the right Gold Coast financial planner to help make your dreams become a reality.

The key to any successful financial plan is not the strategy itself. It is the combination of taking action, effective implementation, long-term commitment, and discipline that brings a plan to life, making it successful in reaching your goals.

Building Your Wealth

Whether you are trying to get ahead on your home mortgage or the kids are about to start school, it is crucial to feel like you’re on top of your finances, not living day-to-day. Creating a clear pathway towards your lifestyle goals will help build financial security, reduce stress, and create more options for you and your family. Building wealth is the first step of your financial journey, and the choices made here are the most crucial to future prosperity.

Retirement Horizon

With retirement around ten years away and an empty nest at home, you may start dreaming of retirement. How much income will I need? When can I afford to retire? Can I start working less now and transition out of the workforce? We can provide a range of retirement strategies to help you protect your lifestyle while bridging any gap between the size of your current nest egg and the one you need in your retirement, whenever that might be.

Retirement Years

You may have just started to enjoy your retirement freedom and need to take stock to review your finances’ longevity. Your priorities have changed from building wealth to being smart about how you use it. You need a plan to give you the lifestyle you want and to create a legacy that is important to you. Your income and capital preservation strategies may incorporate income generation, age pension, and estate planning, amongst other approaches.
