The Australian Financial Services’ (AFS’) Catalyst Group is currently looking at pursuing opportunities in direct property and structured investments.
The Catalyst Group together with AFS Group’s specialist property preferred partners believes that in the wake of the collapse of the property sector, clients can gain significant value by looking for the right mix of undervalued properties.
The group also intends to design products that will take advantage of capital protection, recovering markets and client sentiment.
Members of the Catalyst Group are divided into separate subcommittee work groups that reflect their marketplace expertise in risk, investment and retirement and then utilise a robust framework to vigorously appraise potential initiatives before they are launched and marketed within the AFS Group.
The Catalyst Group was developed to drive product and service innovation for the AFS Group by utilising the expertise of its leading practitioners, according to AFS chief executive and managing director Peter Daly.
