Given his international experience, Craig also assists those clients with cross jurisdictional issues, whether as expatriates relocating overseas or as non-residents relocating to Australia. The regulatory and technical requirements for cross border advice is quite onerous and the combination of Craig’s skillset in this area along with the specialities in the global Nexia network allows him to provide comprehensive advice to his clients. All of Craig’s portfolios are carefully structured in accordance with his clients’ specific financial and personal objectives. Importantly, a lot of time is spent with the client to ensure they properly understand the relative merits of the recommended strategy against potential alternatives. Craig is committed to delivering the best possible level of service, and his broad spectrum of loyal clients and on-going business referrals is a direct reflection of his expert advice and strategies.
