Karl Mawston,
Financial Adviser
Karl has been advising clients since 2010 and takes pride in helping people feel comfortable and confident when making important financial decisions. His approach is calm and practical, focused on providing clear guidance without jargon or pressure.
Specialising in personal risk protection and KiwiSaver, Karl supports clients through different life and career stages, helping ensure their insurance cover and retirement savings settings remain appropriate as their circumstances change over time.
For Karl, the most rewarding part of being an adviser is seeing clients move from uncertainty to confidence, knowing they have a clear plan and trusted support in place.
“Advice is valuable because it brings clarity to complex decisions. It helps people avoid costly mistakes, stay focused on what matters most, and make decisions with confidence rather than uncertainty.”
Karl believes good advice should simplify things, not complicate them. He takes the time to understand what matters most to each client and helps them stay focused on the right priorities, even as life evolves.
He holds the New Zealand Certificate in Financial Services (Level 5) and values being part of Advice4Life for its strong alignment in values, genuine commitment to doing the right thing for clients, and focus on building long-term relationships through advice delivered with integrity.

Advice4Life Limited (FSP 489726) holds a licence issued by the Financial Markets Authority (FMA) to provide financial advice.
