Vermilion arranges a private consultation. The pages linked from here are general information about the subjects, the people they are written for, and the steps.

This website contains information that is general in nature. It does not take into account the objectives, financial situation or needs of any particular person. You need to consider your financial situation and needs before making any decisions based on this information.

Who we help

The introduction is for people who want to talk about their own affairs. Reading a page does not create a client relationship, and it does not mean the practice can advise on every question.

How it works

Five steps, from a conversation to written advice

The steps below describe the introduction. They are the same on each advice page so the process is easy to compare. Personal advice, if you proceed, is given by MGB Financial Services.

  1. 01

    A private consultation

    You book a free initial 15-minute chat with Vermilion. The conversation is about the questions you want to raise. It is general. It is not personal advice, and you can stop after it.

  2. 02

    An introduction, if you want one

    If you ask us to, Vermilion passes your enquiry to MGB Financial Services Pty Ltd. If you do not, the enquiry stays with Vermilion. Vermilion does not hold an Australian financial services licence and does not give the advice.

  3. 03

    Scope and fees, before advice

    MGB Financial Services explains what the advice would cover, and the fees, before personal advice is prepared. This website does not set those fees. The Financial Services Guide describes how MGB Financial Services is paid.

  4. 04

    Advice in writing

    If you proceed, personal advice is documented for you to read before you act on it. The document is prepared by MGB Financial Services, after your own circumstances have been considered.

  5. 05

    Reviews, where agreed

    An ongoing relationship can include reviews of the arrangements you have agreed. The timetable is set with MGB Financial Services. It is not assumed, and it is not a promise that an outcome will be reached.
