Some of Australia’s best non-aligned financial advice practitioners and businesses have been recognised as finalists in the prestigious 2016 ifa Excellence Awards.
Sterling Publishing head of wealth Russell Stephenson, in conjunction with principal partner Colonial First State, has today announced 86 finalists shortlisted across 14 categories.
“We have had a fantastic response to this year’s awards. I’d like to say congratulations to these leading advisers and practices. The finalists will now go through a comprehensive judging process conducted by industry and business experts,” Mr Stephenson said.
“Now in its third year, the ifa Excellence Awards sets a benchmark for quality in the independent and non-aligned space.”
The winners will be announced at a five-star business dinner on 12 August at Sofitel Sydney Wentworth. For more information or to book your ticket, visit http://www.ifa.com.au/ifaawards
