Our awards and recognition

13 industry awards, each with the body attached

Quantum Finance Australia lists every award it has won alongside the organisation that gave it and the year printed on the badge.

This page is for anyone trying to work out whether a broker is any good before they hand over their financials. Awards from lenders and aggregators are one of the few signals that come from outside the business itself.

They cover settled volume, service and long-term standing, and the earliest one carrying a date is from 2016. Names, categories and years are transcribed off the badges rather than summarised.

The people behind them are on the team page.

Who handed each one out

7 organisations, and what that tells you

An award is worth exactly as much as the organisation behind it. Grouping them this way is the fastest way to judge the list rather than count it.

We have not written a paragraph explaining how each of these is judged, because we would be guessing at some of them. What is on the badge is on the page, and the name of the body is there so you can look it up yourself.

What sits behind them

Awards are the shortest version of a long record

Read the names and a pattern shows up: settled volume, excellence in service, and long standing with the same organisations. They come from aggregators, a lender and a trade publication, which are the parties that can see what a broker actually writes.

What none of them tell you is whether your own file will be approved. That depends on your income, your deposit and the credit policy of whichever lender the file suits. An award is evidence of a track record, not a promise about an outcome.

The record underneath them is 21+ years of broking since 2005, over $1 billion settled, and 40+ lenders on the panel. Australian Credit Licence 389083 is held by the business in its own right.

How this list is kept honest

Three rules, and they are the reason the list is shorter than some.

  1. One source

    Every award lives in one file, and the badge, the year and the body are read from it. The slider on the home page and this page cannot disagree, because neither of them holds its own copy.

  2. The badge wins

    The wording is what the badge says, not a better version of it. Where a badge carries no year, none is shown rather than one being worked out.

  3. No badge, no picture

    The Top 100 Brokers listing has no badge file, so it renders as a text card. Drawing one would be inventing an artefact, which is not a small thing to do.

The information on this page is general in nature and does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs. Any figures shown are estimates only. Lending is subject to approval, and to the lender's terms, conditions, fees and charges. Consider whether the information is appropriate for you before acting on it.

Get in touch

Awards are nice. A settled loan is better.

Four questions and you are done. Tell us what you are trying to do and a broker reads it, then rings you back on the number you give us.

Would rather just talk?

Ringing is quicker than waiting for us to ring you, and you get a broker rather than a queue.
