Over the past six months, Australian Unity Personal Financial Services (PFS) has added 26 financial advisers to its business.

According to Australian Unity, its financial services arm now employs 96 advisers and 19 mortgage brokers operating in all mainland states and the ACT.

Australian Unity PFS general manager Steve Davis said advisers have been drawn to the company because of the full service model it offers.

This includes support services in the technical, asset allocation, risk insurance, para-planning, compliance, practice management and back office areas, he said.

"Our accountants partnership program is also very successful in referring accountants to our adviser," he said.

Davis said the partnership program currently has relationships with around 230 accounting firms.
