Why Receive Financial Advice?
Financial advice can help you make better decisions about your financial future at any stage in your life. You work hard so why not make sure your money is working as hard as you are?
The value of good financial advice isn’t exclusive to ‘the wealthy’. We all have the potential to build financial independence. A skilled Financial Adviser could help you reach that potential and put thought into action, especially if you tend to put things off.

Meet the HCFP Team
Getting on top of your finances, taking control of your debt and understanding the various intricacies and ever changing rules of superannuation, tax, investments and financial planning in general can be stressful.
Our role is to take the ‘complicated’ away from our clients by developing and implementing a tailored financial plan that meets your specific needs and overall goals.
What we do
We develop tailored step-by-step financial strategies and help you make informed decisions about your money.
Superannuation
Superannuation is a way to save for your retirement. You build up super while you are working to make sure you can have a comfortable retirement.
Retirement Planning
Retirement may seem like a long way off but putting money into super now is still a tax effective way to invest your money for the future
Investments
Everyone has different needs and circumstances. Please contact us before you start putting your money into any form of investment.
Personal Insurance
Insurance is the foundation of all financial plans. We can help you evaluate the risks and come up with the right solution for you and your family.
Self Managed Super
An SMSF is one where you, as a trustee and member, have responsibility over the management, investment and admin of your super fund.
Debt Management
Effective debt management is not just about the interest you pay, but also the type of assets you’re investing in and prioritising your debts.
Estate Planning
We’d all like to leave a legacy once we’re gone. Estate Planning ensures your assets are distributed to the right people at the right time.
Centrelink
The team at H & C Financial Partners can assist you with understanding which, if any, Centrelink and government benefits that may apply to you

What our clients say
Nick has been a pleasure to deal with, I am so grateful for all his advice and assistance. Nick is so genuine and passionate about what he does, he really has your best interests at heart and I have full trust in him with all personal matters. The process in consolidating all my supers and having the appropriate level of cover was so easy I wish I had consulted Nick sooner. I look forward to dealing with Nick in the future.
STEPHANIE & MAT V Superannuation and Insurance review
Dealing with John from H & C Financial Partners was a breath of fresh air, the advice he provided in relation to consolidating and managing my super funds was very informative and easy to understand. As I just launched a business when initially speaking with John, the budgeting report he provided was extremely helpful which assured that I was held more accountable to my current expenses and savings plan. Since then I have referred a number of family, friends & clients to John who all concur with my above testimonial. I will continue to refer my contacts to John as the advice and service he provides is exceptional.
CHRIS PBusiness Owner
Nicholas Christou was extremely professional in his approach. He helped my wife and I create a budget to help wipe out our debts. I highly recommend Nicholas for anyone who is overwhelmed with debt and is considering planning for the future with finances and for super!!
TIM & IRENEDebt Management
Nicholas has set up both mine and my husbands Transition to Retirement funds, we are so happy with the work he has done to make our life easier. Nicholas is very caring and extremely genuine, we highly recommend him.
GAYLEDebt Retirement Funds
Nicholas is very professional and responsive. He cares about your future and takes the time to explain the strategy and plan being put into place.
JACKResponsive
Our financial adviser John Hiolos whom we have been dealing with over the years takes a hands-on approach. We constantly receive support and advice from him to suit our individual requirements.
