The landscape of the finance industry has completely changed. The banks now own everything, and through their mergers and takeovers, almost all Mortgage Brokers have lost their independence whether they want it or not. The big four had slashed commissions, increased their rates as they pleased, forced volume constraints onto the market and hid behind a smokescreen as they plot their next big profit making move.
With this in mind MST Active had to take the initiative to evolve. To evolve our business model, to evolve our communication streams and most importantly to evolve into a site where we can help inform and educate our customers, our friends and our families in what is happenning in the finance industry. To this end, MST Active have created the following new blogs to help keep everyone posted on facts, news and events that is happening in the finance community.
We have created the "Did You Know?" page to reveal startling facts to keep people in the dark. To find out exactly what the big movers and shakers of the finance industry are upto, we have created the "Let's Do Lunch" page dedicated to asking questions that everyday Australians like yourself, your friends and your families demand and want to ask and so much more.
