Bombora picks up two VIC practices
Two Victorian-based practices have joined boutique dealer group Bombora Advice as equity partners, the group announced.
Shane Coutts from GL Financial Planning and Rory MacKenzie from Prom Country Financial Planning have joined Bombora, which was formed last year.
Coutts and MacKenzie said they joined the non-aligned group because they will benefit from collaborating with a risk specialist dealer group.
"Joining as equity partners has given us the opportunity to contribute to the strategic direction of the business whilst working alongside a professional team of practitioners in a supportive compliant administrative infrastructure," they said.
Coutts' GL Financial Planning is headquartered in Geelong, and services clients from Werribee to the coastal and rural townships surrounding Geelong.
MacKenzie's Prom Country Financial is based in South Gippsland and is a risk protection specialist, looking after medical professionals and self-employed business clients.
Bombora managing director Wayne Handley said the firm will add more practices next month, and it also aims to partner risk specialists.
