Jim is the director of JFN Investor Services Pty Ltd (ABN 47 005 097 727) a company established in Victoria in 1974 and is the holder of an Australian Financial Services Licence N0. 280035 (as issued by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission).

Jim has over 30 years experience in financial services, investments, shares, derivatives, property and superannuation. A regular commentator on financial matters, public speaker, he appeared on television and presented a weekly financial report and today still conducts his radio program “Money & You” on Radio 3MP. He authored the acclaimed audio tape series (ten cassettes) “Gateway to Financial Freedom”.                                                         

Jim first obtained a Securities Dealers Licence in 1982 and during his time as a Securities dealer (1982 – 1990) he created several financial and investment products including the development of the first “Master Trust”, today a multi-billion dollar industry.
In 1990 Jim undertook an extensive research assignment into the world’s financial markets. He spent considerable time in Europe with over 6 months in Zurich, Switzerland where he gained his knowledge of risk analysis.

One of his findings was that the most successful investors treat their investments as a “cash flow business”. Obviously if you can increase and maximise your cash flow, you can reduce debt, create wealth and live your chosen lifestyle.

In France, he studied financial trading strategies and learned the concept of teaching a simple trading strategy without the usual complicated jargon.

Jim blended both his findings from his research in France and Switzerland to develop Indextra®, a training and trading program which, concentrates initially on selecting trades based on risk analysis followed by profit analysis and regular, low risk and consistent small profits. These can obviously accumulate into large sums but at no stage does the investor exceed the risk levels that he or she has determined. He does not recommend all of investors’ funds be used but only a portion that should be deemed ‘business capital’ designed to generate cash flow. The balance ‘investment capital’ should remain in the traditional investment areas.

Jim operates from offices in Collins St. Melbourne which he owns, ‘another good investment’ he observes. Jim lives on a rural property in Gisborne where he has lived for 30 years with his family who were all born in the area.
