For over 23 years as financial adviser, Chris’s goal has always been to help people achieve their own unique financial goals by providing ethical, best, and professional financial advice the smart way.

This advice is based on –

• Every person has the ability to plan his own unique financial future,
• Every elder has the financial responsibility to plan for those who are financially dependent on him/her, and
• That these goals can only be achieved with simplified and effective financial advice.

Chris, his wife Yolanda and two sons, Henré and Liam, emigrated from South Africa to New Zealand in May 2022 and are currently located in Orewa. He is a strong believer in a balanced life, where his love for family, friends, participation in sports (golf, cricket, tennis), being outdoors and a successful career complement each other.
