Why Tide

Most people who refinance pick the cheapest rate they can find and leave everything else to the new bank. Tide was set up to do it differently: look at the whole loan, the structure, the fees and the term as well as the rate, and put your interests ahead of the bank's.

“You work way too hard for your money, so don't donate it to your bank.”JOHN KENNEDY, DIRECTOR

About John

John has worked in finance since 2003. He started in asset finance, then moved into banking: business banking with Westpac, commercial banking with NAB and private banking with ANZ, looking after everyone from large corporate clients to small business owners. He started Tide Financial in 2017.

What he saw again and again inside the banks was customers left on the bank's default setup, monthly minimum repayments and a rate that hadn't been reviewed in years, simply because no one showed them the difference a few changes could make.

Today you deal with John directly, from the first call to settlement. No call centre and no handing your file around.
