Chris founded his practice to challenge the idea that financial planning needs to be complicated or intimidating. He places strong emphasis on education and understanding, helping clients make informed choices while simplifying decisions that often get pushed into the “too hard” basket.
“Chris believes financial planning is not solely about investments or strategies, but more importantly, it is about helping people make smart choices with their money so they can focus on things more important than money.”
Chris has been providing wealth management and holistic financial advice to like-minded clients since 2008. This was initially with a boutique firm called Heraud Harrison who were one of the founding firms that later merged to create the Shadforth Financial Group (SFG).
Chris was fortunate enough to create a number of fantastic relationships with clients and colleagues alike, many of those still being in his life today. But in 2016 he decided to leave SFG to build a boutique practise which would be (and still is) focussed on a client centric and evidence-based approach.
Chris co-founded Chronos Private as he wanted to create a fun and vibrant environment for staff and clients alike. Sadly, for many Australians, planning for their future is something that either finds its way into the “too hard basket” or gets neglected as everybody is so time poor.
Chris’ goal is to help clients find their ideal lives, whatever that may look like, whilst at the same time simplifying those things that the world loves to overcomplicate. Clearly that involves providing clients with advice but not to be forgotten is also providing clients with education – this is equally important in Chris’ view.
As we all know though, life isn’t just about money! Chris is a passionate fan of most sports and loves to live an active lifestyle, be that in the gym, on the golf course or the closest National Park.
Chris is also lucky enough to hear so many amazing travel stories from his clients so as you’d expect, the travel bug is regularly spreading through his household (although not so much in 2020…!).
