FS Power50 guide

Financial Standard has named the 2025 FS Power50, the most influential financial advisers in Australia.

Each year Financial Standard conducts the search for the 50 most influential financial advisers in Australia, backed by readers of Financial Standard and FS Advice - The Australian Journal of Financial Planning.

The FS Power50 are financial advisers deemed to be best promoting the value of the financial advice profession, while providing outstanding service to their clients and the wider community. This year's 50 consists of advisers who have won industry awards, brought their local advice community together, supported charitable foundations, promote the value of financial advice in the media and across digital channels and more.

There are now 290 financial advisers among the FS Power50 alumni, each of them have been, or continue to be, instrumental in shaping the financial advice industry.

Thank you to those who supported the 2025 FS Power50. We saw a significant increase in the number of nominations from advisers, with an equal increase in the quality of submissions, which has made the process all the more competitive.

The Power50 continues to showcase the value of financial advice and the powerful role advisers play in changing the lives of Australians. Thank you to all our advisers for your hard work in improving the financial wellbeing of your clients and community.
