About

Anthony Sloan – Founder, FWD Financial

Anthony Sloan is a Canberra Mortgage Broker and Financial Adviser with more than 25 years of experience helping professionals, public servants and business owners structure home loans, refinance mortgages and build long-term wealth through strategic lending advice.

As the Founder of FWD Financial, Anthony works with clients across Canberra seeking guidance on:

• Home loans and refinancing
• Investment property finance
• First home buyer lending
• Construction and complex lending scenarios
• SMSF and commercial lending

FWD stands for Finance + Wealth + Direction – a philosophy built around helping clients move forward with clarity, confidence and financial momentum.

Unlike many mortgage brokers who focus primarily on comparing interest rates, Anthony takes a strategy-first approach to lending. He helps clients structure loans correctly to improve borrowing flexibility, support future investment opportunities and align lending decisions with long-term financial goals.

Based in Canberra, Anthony works extensively with professionals, Commonwealth public servants, defence personnel and business owners, including clients with allowances, variable income structures and overseas postings. Clients value his calm, methodical approach and his ability to simplify complex lender policies into clear and practical next steps.

Anthony and FWD Financial were recently featured in the Canberra Times’ “Best Mortgage Brokers in Canberra” and “How Anthony Sloan’s 25 years of experience sets him apart as a broker” articles, recognising the firm’s independent advice, strategic lending expertise and strong reputation within the Canberra market.

Outside of work, Anthony enjoys spending time with family and friends, training in CrossFit, fly fishing and hiking in the outdoors.
