Transition into retirement with confidence — knowing exactly how your income, investments and super will support the life you want.
For some it's becoming a grey nomad and travelling Australia. For others it's endless days on the back porch, reducing the golf handicap, or trying a whole new chapter as a volunteer. Whatever retirement looks like for you, our job is to help you get there — and to make the most of it when you do.
Money is not an objective in itself. Our role is to help you make wise choices with the wealth you've accumulated, so you can maximise the lifestyle afforded by a lifetime of hard work. We focus on your lifestyle objectives rather than fixating solely on taxation savings or leaving a large legacy.
Many of our clients appreciate the interest we take in their estate planning. We provide estate planning advice and, where appropriate, accompany our clients to meetings with their legal advisers to ensure they and their families get the best outcome from this important area.
We use detailed financial modelling to show exactly how your money is projected to last throughout retirement under different scenarios — giving you the confidence to make important decisions, whether that's when to retire, how much to spend, or when to downsize.
Our clients often tell us that understanding their numbers for the first time is transformative. The goal isn't a bigger super balance — it's the peace of mind that comes from knowing your future is well planned.
Book a no-obligation initial consultation — an honest conversation about where you are today and where you want to be.

Protecting client's privacy is very important to us. As part of our commitment to ensuring the safety of our client's private and confidential information and as a mechanism to ensure our compliance with the Privacy Act, we have established and implemented a Privacy Policy (the Policy).
The Policy explains our policies and practices with respect to the collection and management of personal information we collect from you. The Privacy Act requires us to handle your personal information in accordance with a set of principles, known as the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs). Those Principles and our approach to those Principles are set out below.
The Policy applies to Wealthcycle Pty Ltd, and all of its related companies together referred to in this Policy as us.
We will collect and hold your personal information for the purposes of:
The type of information collected from you includes information that is necessary to operate your investment accounts or for us to provide advice to you. We may ask you to provide personal information such as your:
Much of this information is collected through application forms, the use of our online facilities or through ongoing communications with you. We will not collect any personal information about you except where you have knowingly provided that information to us or we believe you have authorised a third party to provide that information to us.
There are also specific circumstances in which we will ask for your sensitive information such as:
We will always seek your consent before collecting this kind of sensitive information. We may also need to collect information from third parties. For example, we may need to collect information from your accountant, product issuer and employer.
We are also required to ask for certain information by law. Wherever there is a legal requirement for us to ask for information about you, we will inform you of the obligation and the consequences of not giving us the requested information. Such evidence may include items such as a certified copy of your driver's licence, passport or birth certificate.
You are not required to give us the information that we request. However, if you do not give us the information that we ask for, or the information you give is not complete or accurate, this may:
For example, we are required to ask for your TFN when you invest in a superannuation product. If you choose not to give us your TFN, you may be subject to higher tax charges on your superannuation and the fund may not be able to accept personal contributions.
We use your personal information for the purposes for which it has been obtained. We collect your personal information so that we are able to act on your request, such as:
Personal information will also be used where you have consented to such disclosure or where it is required or authorised under law, in circumstances relating to public health and safety or in connection with certain operations by or on behalf of an enforcement body.
We may provide your information to external parties. Where personal information is disclosed there are strict controls in place to ensure information is held, used and disclosed in accordance with the APPs. The types of external organisations to which we often disclose your personal information include:
We may also disclose your personal information where it is required by law (such as to the Australian Taxation Office), authorised by law, necessary in discharging obligations (such as to foreign governments for the purposes of foreign taxation), or required to assist in law enforcement. We will also disclose your information if you give your consent.
We do not currently disclose your personal information overseas.
You may request access to the personal information we hold about you. There may be circumstances where we are unable to give you access to the information that you have requested. If this is the case we will inform you and explain the reasons why.
You have a right to ask us to correct any information we hold about you if you believe it is inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, irrelevant or is misleading. If you wish to access your personal information, you should contact us through our offices.
If you believe that we have mishandled your personal information, in turn, breaching the APPs, you may lodge a complaint with us. The complaint, addressed to the Privacy Officer, must be in writing in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988. From receipt of your written complaint, the Privacy Officer has 30 days to respond.
In the event that the Privacy Officer is unable to resolve your complaint, you may lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner via:
We have practices and procedures in place to safeguard your privacy. Your personal information is stored on highly secure cloud servers with strict password access. The people who handle your personal information for us have the training, knowledge, skills and commitment to protect it from unauthorised access or misuse.

If you do not wish to transmit information via email or through our website, there are other ways in which you can provide this information to us.
