Last night in Brisbane, a ceremony honoured the achievements of Queensland's mortgage and finance broking industry.
The MFAA Queensland Excellence Awards recognised 18 award winners for their excellence in customer service, professionalism, ethics, growth, and innovation.
“It’s wonderful to be here in Brisbane with so many industry members to celebrate the amazing outcomes our members are delivering for their clients,” said MFAA CEO Anja Pannek.
“I congratulate all our winners. We received a record number of submissions this year, and the exceptional standard of those submissions is a sign of the passion our members have for helping their clients realise their goals.”
