Why us?

No one is better equipped

Ian brings a level of personal interaction and service that’s incredibly important. After decades of doing things right and wrong, Ian had an epiphany: he was driven by a sincere desire to assist clients and effect tangible change in their lives through a little thing called financial planning.

Driven by this realisation, he didn’t establish Druthers simply to build and sell; rather, Ian founded the firm with the commitment to nurturing client relationships for the long haul. Rest assured; you’ll continue to benefit from Ian’s expertise for many years to come.

We lead with empathy. Always.

Ian is a proud holder of the Certified Financial Planner™ designation and is honoured to be recognised as a Chartered Fellow of the CISI. But these titles aren't merely ornamental badges. They are incredibly important and shape Ian’s approach to serving clients and enhancing the quality of advice he provides.

When Ian founded Druthers in 2018, client experience was at the top of his list; because business is all about people, and you can't build a business from unhappy clients! To this day, Ian works tirelessly to ensure clients don’t receive a product-focused service, instead, he focuses on goals and ambitions for the future.

One of the main secrets to our success over the years has been that we’re an intimate business. We’re like an exclusive club, and if you are lucky enough to get in, it’s a wonderful place to be. You’ll get to know Ian and build a relationship based on honesty, kindness and mutual respect.

The highest standards.
