WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Andrew & Kirsten Boud
We have had the pleasure of working with Malcom and the team at Divitia for over 10 years. Malcolm has assisted us with our personal tax, Family Trust and our Self-Managed Super Fund investments and administration. We have always found Malcolm to be extremely diligent and his guidance and expertise have delivered very successful results for our family
I have known Malcolm Wicks for
many years, both as my Accountant
and Financial Adviser. I am confident
that my financial future is secure in his hands. I have found him to be completely ethical, trustworthy and very experienced in his professional approach to handling my financial
affairs. He is continually updating his already experienced knowledge of financial investments, and I would highly recommend him to anyone who is seeking exceptional financial advice
John Galligan
Finding a Financial Advisor can be a challenging task. The 2019 Banking Royal Commission revealed that 90% of financial advisers who provide advice to self-managed super funds have failed to comply with the best interests of their clients. It also stated that just 35% of all financial advisers have completed a degree at bachelor level or above. So there is good reason to be discerning when searching for an advisor.
​
I was lucky, because Malcolm and the team at Divitia were recommended to me by a close friend. Not only is Malcolm a proactive and considered financial advisor, but he is also chartered accountant. For the last 10 years, I have entrusted Malcolm to assist in all elements of my personal and business finances, as well as my Self Managed Super Fund If you need someone you can rely on to help guide you along the path to financial security, and hopefully independence, you would be wise to contact the Divitia Team.
