19 years in advice, three business names, one industry that never really lets go of him. Matt Page from Sprout Financial Services sat down with us straight off the plane from Melbourne and we went deep into the stuff advisers actually talk about when the cameras aren't rolling. ACC and how it quietly reshapes every income protection conversation in New Zealand. KiwiSaver versus super, and why one system lets cash-poor young families insure themselves and the other doesn't.
Commission structures, persistency, why Australia's regulatory pain came with a superannuation trade-off most of us forget to be grateful for. Matt sold one advice business, thought he was done, then built Sprout from scratch anyway.
If you've ever wondered what it actually looks like on the other side of the Tasman, this is the conversation.
