Discover Financial Partners - Richmond, Victoria

I cannot speak highly enough of Benjamin Northwood. Working in the finance industry myself, I’ve worked with multiple financial planners and he is, without a doubt, the most genuine and caring financial planners I have ever met. He is the only financial planner I confidently refer my own clients to that I trust to look after them as I would.

Ben takes the time to truly understand his clients, always putting their best interests first, and ensuring every recommendation is tailored with thought and integrity. His depth of knowledge is matched only by his sincerity and patience, making even the most complex financial decisions feel clear and manageable.

I have complete confidence in him and his guidance, and I can honestly say I will follow him wherever he goes - which I have! If you want someone who genuinely cares about your financial future and will go above and beyond for you, Ben is the person you want by your side.

Thank you Ben!

As recently retired business owners, my husband and I were highly recommended by friends to try Discover Financial Partners to handle our finances. We couldn't be happier with our choice. Matt Gibson and his crew, Manela Gunawardena and Harley Leslie, have guided us expertly through the superannuation investment process. Their knowledge and genuine down to earth manner helped us feel at ease with options available for our retirement nest egg. They got to know us us personally, always interested and are very easy to talk to, giving us confidence we have made the right choice. Big thank you to all at Discover Financial Partners and we would highly recommend!

Tim and Matt have been fantastic to work with as my financial advisors. They took the time to understand my investment appetite and long-term goals, and developed a clear, tailored plan that I can confidently “set and forget.” What really stands out is how proactive they’ve been in guiding me through the implementation—keeping me on track and making sure I take action. Their support gives me confidence that I’m heading in the right direction for retirement. Highly recommend!

Discover Financial Partners helped to demystify the our options for managing our savings in retirement. Tim particularly took care to explain the possible plans and then provided a forecast of portfolio gains. These allowed for our personal demands and hopes. The projections have proven to be very satisfying and we are grateful for Tim and the teams help at this stage of our life.

We recently retired and were at a loss to invest our money and deal with our super account. Tim at Discover Financial Partners has provided great advice and connected us to a Tax Agent to sort out.an ATO matter. Their investment advice has been understanding of our needs and we have been very happy with the results providing us with a growth option along with our regular pension has seen our portfolio grow over the 2 years. Their forecasted plan has been cautious but reasonable and the returns very satisfying. They have actively managed our finances and engaged us on the journey and we feel we have been treated like people that matter. We would recommend this company to manage your investment needs.

We have been fortunate enough to have Matthew Gibson and Associates helping and advising us with our financial affairs for over 10 years now.
Matthew's expertise and wisdom has meant that we are in a much better situation than if we had continued to work on our own without any guidance.
Matt is very easy to talk to and offers advice in straight forward terms.
He is now also assisting the next generation of our family.
I would highly recommend Matthew as a financial advisor and only wish we had consulted him sooner.

My interaction with Discover Financial Partners has been brilliant! With Manela as my main adviser, I have been attended to promptly and professionally at all times and cannot speak highly enough of their services. I am one very happy and confident client. A great team to work with.

We have been clients of Matthew Gibson since his early days in Albert Park and as the Discover team has grown, Tim Barresi has become our adviser and has continued the strong financial advice and personal approach and support.
Tim's willingness to help with any issues is reassuring and we know that our financial affairs are in such good hands
