Great teams aren’t built in the office alone — they’re built through shared moments, trust, and a bit of fun outside work too. 👏👏👏 Today, we took some time to step away from our desks and connect as a team. From laughs to conversations that don’t usually happen in meetings, it’s these moments that strengthen how we collaborate and support each other every day. Proud to be part of a team that values both performance and people.😄😄😄 #TeamCulture #WorkLifeBalance #TeamBuilding #Grateful #Originalwealth #broker #brokerage

Interest rate adjustments across major Australian lenders have now been largely implemented. 📊 Summary of the latest updates: • Most lenders increased variable rates by 0.25% • Effective dates concentrated between 27–31 March 2026 • Final adjustments completed by early April (e.g. Macquarie) This reflects a highly synchronised response across the lending market. #InterestRates #MortgageStrategy #LendingAustralia #FinanceIndustry   #PropertyMarketAU #Refinancing #WealthManagement   #OriginalWealth #BrokerInsights #FinancialStrategy

Original Wealth is proud to announce our sponsorship of Lustica Football Academy. Lustica Football has quickly established itself as one of Australia’s leading elite youth football academies, consistently competing in top national tournaments against some of the strongest academies in the country, including A-League development programs and state-level teams. The academy is led by founder and head coach Steven Lustica, a former professional midfielder who has played for clubs including Hajduk Split, Western Sydney Wanderers, Brisbane Roar, and Western United, and has represented Australia at the youth level. His professional experience brings a rare level of technical expertise, professionalism and mentorship to youth football development in Australia. Under Steven’s leadership, Lustica Football has built a strong reputation for developing technically outstanding and mentally resilient young players, with many progressing into higher-level pathways, including the NPL system. At Original Wealth, we believe strong communities are built by investing in the next generation. Supporting organisations that create meaningful opportunities for young athletes aligns closely with our values as a business. We are proud to support Lustica Football and look forward to seeing the continued growth and success of the academy and its players. #OriginalWealth #SupportingTheNextGeneration #YouthDevelopment #CommunityPartnership #broker #brokerage #AustralianFootball #MelbourneBusiness #FutureOfSport

There’s a strong consensus forming around rate cuts. But I’m not entirely convinced the risk is gone. Core inflation is still running above the RBA’s target range, and unemployment remains tight enough to keep wage pressure alive. On top of that, the RBA recently lifted its estimate of the neutral rate — which suggests current settings may not be as restrictive as many assume. If inflation proves sticky, further tightening can’t be ruled out. Markets tend to move ahead of policy. But policy ultimately follows data. For borrowers and investors, this cycle is less about predicting cuts — and more about building resilience. #RBA #InterestRates #MonetaryPolicy #Inflation #AustralianEconomy #RateOutlook #EconomicUpdate #MarketInsights #CashFlowManagement

It’s about strategy. #HomeLoans #MortgageBroker #RegisteredNurse #AustralianProperty #FirstHomeBuyer #Victoria #FinanceStrategy
