Queensland-based Complete Financial Balance has announced it has joined the Arthur J. Gallagher group of companies and will embark on building on its long-term success under a new AFSL.

Headquartered in inner Brisbane, Complete Financial Balance was founded in 2002 and has a team of 18 offering a full suite of advisory services to the medical and SME market. CFB has been recognised by the industry several times and was awarded the inaugural AFA Practice of the Year Award in 2014.

Founding director and winner of the 2009 AFA Adviser of the Year, Graham Campbell, said “we are delighted to be setting off on an exciting new journey as part of Gallagher’s employee benefit consulting and brokerage operations and will look to enhance our advice and benefits proposition to SMEs and large corporates in the Australian market.”

The existing CFB team will remain in place and continue to manage all aspects of the company.

“The opportunity to be part of a larger group is compelling and we will be able to provide our clients with many new services and areas of expertise. Once we have consolidated under the new licence, we are looking forward to putting in place an ambitious growth strategy” founding director Tapel Cafer said.
