One of Australia’s top brokerages has revealed plans to open two new offices and launch a self-managed super fund business.
Zobel won the Best Diversification Program at the 2013 Australian Broking Awards and also made The Adviser’s Top 25 Brokerages ranking in 2013.
Director Andrew Zobel said the brokerage franchise would add another two branches later this year, both in Adelaide.
There is currently one office in the Adelaide CBD and another four in regional South Australia.
Mr Zobel told The Adviser that the group’s investment property arm, Property Road, was in talks with two large financial planning groups about launching an SMSF business for July 1.
The SMSF business would not only provide advice but also set up funds, he added.
Mr Zobel said the group had been fielding an increasing number of SMSF enquiries from its home loan and investment clients.
“We’ve found it’s a specialist field and there’s not a great deal of knowledge about how it all works,” he said.
Zobel plans to enter this year’s Australian Broking Awards, for which submissions are now open.
