“Our partnership with Craig Boss continues our business strategy of providing access to specialist professionals and services for our clients,” Mr Geffin said.

“Craig has high alignment with our client-centric values and with our vision of creating a specialist advice firm with a diverse range of services. We are again delighted to attract such a high-quality individual to our business from the dealer-aligned space and look forward to expanding the firm’s insurance capabilities as a result of this partnership.”
