Maximising your financial position
Everyone wants to maximise their financial position. What to do and how to do it can be a minefield of advice tainted with a healthy dose of mistrust.
Most of us get one shot at making a financial decision with long-term benefits, maximising our hard work for future comfort, and passing on something substantial to our children.
Leaving that decision to chance or “googling – What is a great investment idea?” is fraught with danger and rarely works out.
Setting yourself up for financial freedom is a journey filled with potential pitfalls and opportunities, requiring financial acumen, strategic planning, and discipline.
“Maximising your financial position isn’t about earning more — it’s about making smarter decisions with what you already have.”
What does a financial advisor do?
Putting the cards on the table and ensuring complete transparency, a qualified and experienced financial advisor’s working world is focused on money. They’re motivated by wealth management, creating financial gains, and accumulating wins for their clients. That is their job. It drives them to succeed, and seeing their client’s wealth grow on the back of their advice is profoundly satisfying and personally rewarding.
A financial advisor is well-versed in various investment strategies. When they work alongside a business accountant, they have an intricate understanding of tax obligations.
They study strategy and financial products and maintain a keen eye on market trends, always looking to exploit any changes in financial regulation that will give their clients an edge.
This expertise allows them to craft personalised financial plans tailored to their client’s unique goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon.
How does a financial advisor help you?
One of the primary benefits of working with a financial advisor is their ability to help clients navigate the complexities of the financial markets. Investing can be intimidating for the uninitiated, with many options available, from stocks, funds, SMSF, wealth management strategies, superannuation and other money-generating and money-protection vehicles.
A financial advisor can help individuals cut through the noise and identify investment opportunities that align with their objectives.
By conducting thorough research and analysis, they can construct a well-balanced portfolio to generate long-term returns while minimising risk.
When it comes to maximising returns for high-performance individuals, it’s easy to succumb to emotional impulses. Whether it’s chasing hot stock tips or panicking during market downturns, emotional investing can derail even the most well-laid financial plans. A financial advisor acts as a steady hand in turbulent times, providing objective guidance and helping clients stay the course during periods of market volatility.
Optimise tax efficiencies
Tax is complex, and when you own a business, it requires professional business accounting expertise.North Advisory business accountancy services works with a broad range of business sectors and our expertise filters to our wealth management arm for individuals who require qualified and experienced wealth and financial advice.
A major pillar of our services is optimising tax efficiencies for businesses and individuals. Taxation can significantly erode investment returns if not managed effectively. A skilled financial advisor can employ tax-efficient investment strategies to minimise tax liabilities and maximise after-tax returns.

At North Advisory, our financial advice services offer holistic financial planning beyond just investment management. We ensure clients have comprehensive financial plans that encompass budgeting, debt management, insurance coverage, estate planning, and more. By taking a holistic approach to financial planning, we address all aspects of our clients’ financial lives and create a roadmap for long-term success.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does it mean to maximise your financial position?
It means optimising all aspects of your finances — including income, expenses, investments, tax efficiency and risk management — so they work together to support your long-term goals.
Is maximising your financial position only about investing?
No — investing is only one part. Effective financial positioning also includes tax planning, cash flow management, debt structuring, superannuation and asset protection.
Who should focus on improving their financial position?
Anyone with income or assets can benefit, particularly professionals, business owners and families looking to grow wealth while maintaining lifestyle flexibility and security.
How does tax planning help maximise financial outcomes?
Tax planning ensures you retain more of what you earn by legally minimising tax liabilities and structuring income and investments efficiently over time.
How often should a financial strategy be reviewed?
Your strategy should be reviewed regularly and whenever there are significant life or financial changes, such as income growth, business expansion or family changes.
What’s the best way to maximise your financial position long-term?
The best approach is to make smart, strategic financial decisions early (instead of relying on “guesses” or random investment ideas) and work with a professional who can help you create a clear plan for long-term wealth, comfort in retirement, and leaving a legacy for your family.

Changed to this company in 2019 from former accountant and love their approach of organizing everything for me face to face with Xero set up plus being able to call as much as I need for set annual fee. They also picked up on something that was not done correctly by my former accountant and saved me $4k for this.
