Matias Santa Maria, Financial Adviser
With two years of experience as a financial adviser specialising in Personal Insurance and Investment, Matías is committed to helping people make informed financial decisions. His approach goes beyond simply recommending financial products - he ensures his clients understand their choices and how they align with their long-term goals.
With a Bachelor of Business degree, and an NZ Certificate in Financial Services (Level 5) specialising in Investment, as well as Life, Disability and Health Insurance. His in-depth knowledge of the share market and investment strategies allows him to provide well-rounded financial guidance. He believes financial education is just as important as financial protection. “Too often, people invest in financial products without truly understanding them. I see my role as bridging that gap - providing clarity and giving them the confidence to build a secure financial future."
At Advice4Life, Matías values being part of a team that prioritises client care and industry excellence. “Working alongside an experienced team pushes me to constantly improve, ensuring I give my clients the best advice possible,” he says.
Outside of work, Matías stays active every day and is passionate about extreme sports like surfing, skydiving, and snowboarding.

“Financial advice should be clear, simple, and empowering. My goal is to ensure you not only have the right financial protection but also fully understand how it benefits you.”
