Senior adviser appointed at Wattle Partners


Boutique financial advisory firm Wattle Partners has appointed Renato Manias as a senior financial adviser.
He joined the Melbourne firm with a decade of experience in boutique financial planning practices across Victoria and held a Master of Financial Planning as well as CFP certification.
Jamie Nemtsas, partner and director, said: “We welcome Renato to our group at a time when the financial planning sector is undergoing an overhaul. We know that our clients today want good advice — which can be more easily measured.
“Our firm continues its growth trajectory and having exceptional talent on board is key to our success. The acquisition of the highly respected independent asset consulting firm Atchison Consultants last year shows we are committed to run a better, stronger business that provides better outcomes for clients.”
Manias said: “I am very excited to work with the team at Wattle Partners. The firm stands out amongst the peers with its proud history and its determination to continue [founder] Austin Donnelly’s legacy of being a strong advocate for tailored, client-centric advice for our clients that always puts their interests first.”
