Several of the Crest team recently attended the 2016 NSW Charter Awards night. This evening highlights the excellent advice provided to financial planning clients throughout NSW. The night included various awards of excellence and also honoured those who have provided many years of professional planning advice within the wider Charter community.

It was great to see our very own Rhys Higgins nominated again as one of the 3 finalists for the NSW Value of Advice award, along with Stephen Cook (Smarter Financial – Port Macquarie) and Alex Naylor (Sydney Financial Planning – Sydney). Congratulations to Alex for taking out the award, and we look forward to him challenging the other state winners in Melbourne next year.

We were also very proud when Crest’s Andrew Thomas was awarded the New Adviser of the Year for NSW. This is a great effort and is a testimony to his hard work and consistent focus on positive client outcomes.

Crest would also like to extend their congratulations to Ray Albrighton of Announcer Group (Sydney) for taking out the State Adviser of the Year award.

At Crest, we believe the acknowledgement and recognition of outstanding advice is important, as it highlights the value and positive impact that financial planning has on people’s lives everyday.
