Private Wealth Advisor
ANDREW BOWRING
I am the Financial Planner with CSCG. I have been in the industry for more than 30 years running my own successful practice in Sydney for most of that time. I made the move to Melbourne in 2011 not just to support the mighty Demons but also to make my wife happy who is a Melbourne girl through and through.
I am trying to bring an experienced and consultative slant to financial planning for the CS Group. My specialty is the “planning” part of financial planning – getting to understand exactly what it is my client is trying to achieve and then recommending strategies that make that “plan” a reality. It is important that you know that CS Group wants our clients to be as financially successful as they can be – my job is to make sure that you get the most out of what you have worked so hard to achieve.
