Neil comes from Somerset West and matriculated at Paul Roos Gimnasium in 2003. He did his B.Comm (Hons) at the University of Stellenbosch and thereafter did his Post Graduate Diploma in Financial Planning at the University of Stellenbosch Business School (USB). He has been working at Finfocus since 2009 and passed his FPI Board exam in 2010. He qualified as a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® Practitioner at the end of 2011.
Neil advises on Investments and is a Personal Risk Management Specialist. He finds working with the younger generation stimulating because he usually has to combine both his personal risk management and investment skills in dealing with them. He has, however, no age or gender preference when it comes to clients. He works in close partnership with Amy van Niekerk and, as personal risk management specialist, deals with all the assurance needs of her clients.
In his free time he likes to play golf, surf or go hiking in the nature.
