Gavin Fernando

Principal Adviser

Authorised Representative and Credit Representative of Hillross Financial Services Limited

Gavin holds a Bachelor of Commerce, a Diploma of Financial Planning and a Certificate in Financial Markets. He’s spent the past 21 years of his career in financial services. Gavin prides himself on being able to distil complex financial problems in to plain language for his clients.

I have worked in the finance industry my entire working life starting with retail banking, commercial lending, paraplanning and for the past 20 years financial advising. My background, interests and experience has helped me develop a sound technical knowledge and a deep affinity with my clients.

I enjoy helping people take control of their finances, learn more about their investments, tax and better ways to handle their financial affairs.

I am an Associate of the FPA, a Senior Associate with FINSIA and an Affiliate with the Australian Institute of Company Directors
