Who We Are
Every adviser partnering with Respect has a history of serving clients. Many come from running their own companies, rolling with the punches, and celebrating the wins along the way.
Each of us has studied over many years to earn industry qualifications, staying up to date with current standards through regular training sessions, more study, seminars, and national conferences. Striving for better not only for our businesses but for our clients too.
We are all members of associations and governing bodies to make sure that we stay on track, and stay focused on being the best we can be.
We live and work in WA along with our families. We may cheer for Blue and Gold or Purple, Glory or Western Force, even the Adelaide Crows, but at the end of the day, we all call Australia home.
How we got Started
Respect began with a handful of advisers wanting to change the way they helped their clients. We wanted to make a difference, be proactive in delivering services, advice and ongoing support.
We saw the very public failings of many of the larger bank owned groups and companies that had become nothing more than money churners. Clients had a call centre number and had to answer many questions from far too many people to get a response.
We starting talking about a future where we are setting the targets for delivery and getting it done. Sitting face to face over the kitchen table talking with clients about their future and their goals with Respect, honesty and always with their best interest in focus.
Management
Respect as a company is totally owned and operated by Financial Advisers. The day to day operation are managed by a Managing Director and support staff.
Additionally, a board of directors are appointed to guide and oversee the company. We also contract outside consultants with proven experience and skills that we require to help our Advisers up-skill, navigate compliance and better service their clients.
Advisers
Our advisers are based all over the country and many support clients in far off towns like Geraldton and Esperance, or cities such as Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney.
Our skills cover the areas of Personal Insurances, Investment, Superannuation, Securities, Retirement Planning and Estate planning to name most of them.
We do not have any Robots employed at the company, we are all flesh and blood.
