Meet Benjamin Collins

Benjamin Collins is a Senior Financial Adviser and the founder of What If Advice. After several years with larger organisations including CBA, AMP and Suncorp, Ben started a boutique advice firm in 2017 so he could spend more time with each client on their specific goals.

He has a keen interest in helping early accumulators and small-business clients on their journey towards financial independence, and specialises in helping clients build a solid financial base — understanding their cash flow, having a retirement fund that meets their needs, and being financially protected against unforeseen events.

You can verify Ben's registration on ASIC's Financial Adviser Register, view his LinkedIn profile, or read his full bio on whatifadvice.com.au.

The wider team

Ben is joined by fellow advisers including Luke Morris and Leigh, plus an accounting and client-services team. Across the practice, six licensed financial advisers and a Chartered Accountants ANZ-affiliated accounting team have filed more than 2,000 tax returns and support over 200 business clients.

What clients value
