Trustworthy financial advice

When I began planning for my retirement, one of my primary priorities was to obtain trustworthy advice on how to invest my savings. During this period, I became aware of Melbourne Capital Group and Mr. Adil Rafiq, who took a genuine interest in understanding my personal situation, financial goals, and, most importantly, my profile as an investor.

As I was—and continue to be—a beginner in the investment field, he presented various options and guided me through them in a clear, patient, and structured manner. This approach made me feel comfortable and confident that my finances were being managed responsibly.

I have now been working with Melbourne Capital Group for almost two years, and my experience remains consistently positive. I continue to feel well supported, and during this time, my portfolio has grown beyond my expectations. Mr. Adil Rafiq closely monitors my account, and we maintain regular meetings to review and assess investment performance.

Overall, I am very satisfied with the service provided and appreciate the ongoing professionalism, guidance, and care. I look forward to continuing this successful relationship in the years ahead with confidence and optimism.

Retirement Financial Planning

Seliyan Swaminathan of Melbourne Capital Group has done a great and timely service and recommendation in converting my EPF and other savings into better low risk investments with timely advice and safer returns for many years. He also recommended better medical insurance plans with financial returns and higher coverage for me and my son. Will inclusion for me and my brother was aptly done. I will definitely recommend him as previously to family and friends for their planning financially be it for retirement or financial future investments locally and off shore as done for me. Appreciate his dedication and services rendered.

I’m sure that many of us always push back when Financial personal approach us and I can empathise with this feeling as I myself had been through the same prior to meeting with Chris,….together we discussed an appropriate plan of investment and even though I hoped this was a fund for future retirement …., unfortunately this was not the case as a very unforeseen employment issue arose from no where, and I had to fund myself through the savings / investment that I had put away…., I know now that keeping a fund ongoing and sacrificing now is a must for the future and I have learnt the hard way, …..although I have depleted some funds I know that it will be re financed once I am back on my feet. It’s not a pleasant story but it’s the truth of this life we all travel through…. So in thanks to Chris and his team for ensuring there was an ear to listen and actions to support in some very tough times. Looking forward with positivity and genuine acceptance that we can ALL have apathy and none of us our exempt.

Thank you so much Kal Murray for your superb efforts in having found me the correct international medical cover that addresses all my specific needs as an expat. Kal has assisted me in fully planning my retirement and secured my family's financial future. This makes me feel really confident in me and my family's future, knowing that everything is taken care of. I now have much more peach of mind and the entire process has been really smooth and easy.

Very good experience with Melbourne Capital Group and Jake Mowson

Good experience so far with Melbourne Capital Group. I have been dealing with them for over a year now and I have been very happy so far. I'm dealing exclusively with their financial advisor Jake Mowson. He is very professional, knowledgeable and he is advising and helping me in building on for my future retirement. He is regularly checking on me and try to meet from time to time. He is always making himself available when we need. Great person to work with.

Strongly recommended

I made the change to Melbourne Capital Group a year or so ago and have been very impressed with their service, advice and professionalism. Jamie Bubb-Sacklyn has been our advisor ever since and we've found him to be very helpful and knowledgeable, whether it's regarding investments, planning for retirement, or UK tax advice etc.

A fledgling investor who found the best advisor

I was looking to make an investment as I am fast approaching retirement age with nothing in place. The Melbourne Capitol advisor, Jake Mowson came to my help. Now, we can all be sceptical at times but Jake always made me feel comfortable and as an advisor, he did just that, he advised. Never any pressure and always available to discuss matters. Brilliant
