About the company

What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Ord Minnett is described by long-standing clients as a financial advisory practice where personal relationships and continuity of care shape the experience. Several reviewers note that advisers including Ben Hackett, Con Maglis, Matt Hui, Natasha Chau and Charles Buxton keep them informed and explain the reasoning behind each recommendation, particularly in relation to superannuation portfolios and equity or bond investments. A recurring point is the thoroughness of the advice: clients describe clear breakdowns of proposed changes, prompt follow-up without needing to chase, and guidance tailored to individual circumstances rather than a standard template.

Those who have transferred superannuation accounts report improved outcomes after acting on the recommendations given, while others speak of building substantial bond portfolios over several years with consistent support. The willingness of advisers to remain available, and the backing provided by the wider firm, come up repeatedly among reviewers who have worked with the practice for a decade or more. Clients also value that transactions, including investment purchases and administrative steps, are handled smoothly even when an adviser is not based locally. The strongest theme is trust built over time, with many customers referring friends and associates on the strength of that relationship.

I have had the pleasure of dealing with Con Maglis for over 10 years.He is knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely committed to helping his clients achieve the best possible financial outcomes. Con took the time to understand my goals, explained everything clearly, and made the entire process simple and stress-free. His honest advice and personalised approach gave me complete confidence in every decision and my portfolio has been growing steadily under his expert guidance.I have no hesitation in recommending Con to future clients

Con Maglis has provided excellent investment guidance to myself and my wife over a period in excess of 10 years . He is extremely knowledgeable and regularly provides us with clear and concise advice concerning the management of our superannuation portfolio. Con and his team have our complete trust and are readily available to advise us whenever required . We could not be happier with the service they provide.

Con is our financial advisor and has been for several years. His approach to advice, presentations and explanations is always very thorough yet easy to understand. Our portfolio has grown year after year under Con's guide - we feel totally safe and assured with Con's knowledge and advice. Ord Minnett is a great fit for Con and we look forward to a long and prosperous future together.

We feel incredibly lucky to have an adviser of Con Maglis' calibre in our corner. While having the technical skills is well and good (and his are excellent) , we've been impressed by the support he has from Ord Minnett regarding our investment strategy, and where he truly excels in his full and committed understanding of our life, goals, and wellbeing.

The quality of my life is enhanced because I have Con Maglis looking after me. We have been working together for many years and I have referred him to my friends and associates. It is not just about the money, though I have total confidence in his judgement in that sphere, it is the understanding of me and my values that he brings to this relationship. He has been directly responsible for me making some important lifestyle decisions. Without his wisdom I could easily have made some significant errors of judgement. I am fortunate to have him on my side. Annie Crowe AASW. MAASW. Psychotherapist. Long time client

I've been dealing with Jake and Sam for a few months now mainly to complete a few investment transactions. The process and service received to date has been smooth and efficient. Although my advisers are no longer based in Newcastle regularly the transactions required were still actioned seamlessly.
