Jon Grant

External Financial Advisor

For Jon, the driving passion behind the establishment of his own business, World Assets, is creating mutually rewarding relationships. He enjoys working one on one with people in lasting relationships, and being partners in wealth management over the long term is a great way of contributing positively to the lives of ‘busy’ successful professionals. A key focus of World Assets is that it remains sufficiently small in client numbers to ensure Jon’s personal focus is never lost.

Working in the financial industry for over 15 years has allowed Jon to experience many aspects of financial advice, and from this he has developed his business to specifically advise on direct shares, listed property trusts, bonds and cash as an Authorised Representative of ROPAN Licensees Pty Ltd.

Outside of work, Jon enjoys spending time at the beach with his wife, Lisa, two young boys, Jack and Harry and daughter Georgie. He enjoys playing golf as it allows him to exercise and is a great way of connecting with people.
