Financial Planners 

For members with more complex needs, we have an arrangement with Industry Fund Financial Planning (IFFP) where three of their financial planners work within the HESTA team and are available to provide comprehensive advice to HESTA members on a fee-for-service basis.

IFFP is a national financial planning practice established to help members of Industry Super Funds, like HESTA, with their financial futures. A Financial Planner can help with personal financial advice on assets outside HESTA, in addition to HESTA super. Members are quoted up-front fixed fees with no hidden costs and no commissions, either up-front or ongoing.
