Profile

About Jason

Jason Chew is a Director of Vista Financial Group, Head of Advice, and a Senior Financial Adviser.

He has been a registered financial adviser since 2009, which makes him the longest registered of Vista's advice leadership team, with 17 years on the ASIC Financial Advisers Register.

Jason began advising in 2010 at Blazer Wealth Management Group, moved to AMP as a Senior Financial Planner, then ran Peak Financial Advisers as Senior Financial Planner and Managing Director from 2012 to 2015. In April 2015 he founded Orange Wealth, built deliberately for people in their thirties and forties who wanted to take control of their financial direction early rather than come to advice at the point of retirement. Orange Wealth joined Vista Financial Group in October 2023, and Jason came with it as a Director of the group.

As Head of Advice, Jason is responsible for advice quality across Vista's four offices as well as running his own client book. He advises on wealth creation, superannuation and self-managed super funds, investment strategy, risk insurance, margin lending and lifestyle-led financial planning, and he holds the Fellow Chartered Financial Practitioner designation, the senior professional designation awarded by the Association of Financial Advisers.

He is a Director of the group and a shareholder of Vista Financial Group Pty Ltd, Vista Finance and Lending Pty Ltd, Vista Financial Group West Vic Pty Ltd, BEA Financial Pty Ltd and ALA Investment Advisors Pty Ltd.

Advice for 30s and 40s
In their own words

In Jason's words

Why did you decide to become a financial adviser?
I grew up listening to Rich Dad Poor Dad on cassette tape in my dad's car and have always been drawn to all things finances, so when I realised I could have a career diving into money and finance and then teach people what I have learned I was hooked. It also turns out that helping people in a meaningful way gives you a big kick of euphoria.
Why did you start Orange Wealth?
Eight years ago most financial advice firms focused on people who were retired or close to it, and me in my early 30s, I wanted to help people similar to me, someone who wants to be in control and design the life I live, not to look back in 20 years and say 'I wish I had done it differently'.
Why was it the right time to join Vista?
Honestly, the right time was probably a few years ago. It's just you don't see a business like Vista every other day of the week. Once I met Vista and the team here I knew it was the right home for me and the people I work with.
Outside work
Family and the outdoors. Long weekends usually mean the camper trailer, and the biggest trip so far was Canada for winter sports. He watches the Golden State Warriors.
