what our clients say
- "Finally, I managed to talk to a specialist who truly understands small business needs! After many years of frustration with my previous bank, Viraj came up with a practical finance solution for our growing business and property investment finance needs. As a result, not only did we secure additional funding required for the growth of our business, we also saved thousands of dollars in interest and bank fees on an ongoing basis. We are very impressed with Viraj’s high standards in service, expert knowledge and “can do” attitude. Viraj is now our trusted finance consultant for all our business and home investment finance needs. Thank you very much Viraj for all your help so far. I have no hesitation in referring you to anyone with finance needs. I look forward to working with you for years to come. Thank you again”.

"Viraj was our Corporate Banker, prior to him establishing Ariya Finance & Business Consultants. Over the years, Viraj earned our trust as our independent banking adviser through the dedication, initiative, creativeness and the years of banking industry experience that he brought to our Group. Viraj was open, honest and transparent in all his dealings with our Group. I was very impressed with his “can do” attitude and the willingness to give thought to some of the “out of the box” ideas that we presented to him. He was very practical and demonstrated excellent customer service standards (even dedicating his time outside business hours). Viraj was able to bring several solutions to meet the various scenarios that we presented him and was able to discuss the pros and cons of each solution. I have referred Viraj’s services to several of my accounting colleagues and the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. Thank you Viraj, I look forward to working with you in future and continuing our relationship with you as our trusted advisor ."PRIY JAYASURIYA CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER -

"Viraj at Ariya Finance & Business Consultants has made a tremendous contribution to the success of our Group over the years. We, just like many other property developers in this market, were confronted with the challenging task of securing bank funding for our projects. With Viraj’s solution focus advice, we successfully managed to overcome each challenge along the way. Without Viraj’s expert advice, reliable and efficient service this would not have possible. I highly recommend Viraj’s services to any business, big or small "ROHAN WOODFORTH MANAGING DIRECTOR, RLW GROUP
- "I have known Viraj for a many years. He was our bank manager before he established his own financial consultancy practice. I am able to testify to Viraj’s work ethic and personal integrity. I was pleased when he made the move to set up his own operation as an independent consultant. We were one of the first clients to access his services and contacts within the banking fraternity. Viraj has advised us on the restructure of our financial arrangements in order to meet our current and future requirements. To this end we have saved a considerable amount of future interest and fees. The most important aspects for us are an understanding our business model and relationships. I know number of other business bankers and brokers. However, Viraj’s extensive industry experience, creative solutions and excellent service delivery meant that he was the “professional of choice” to assist us cooperatively to meet our commercial financial requirements. We are very satisfied with Viraj’s services and we look forward to work with him in future”. I would have no hesitation in recommending him to other entities looking to economise and find the best available deal "

"I approached Viraj Ariyarathne at Ariya Finance and Business Consultants because I needed additional funds to complete a major project. I had previously enjoyed a good long-term relationship with my bank (as a Private Bank client at one of the Big 4) but over the years they had become more and more frustrating with their onerous requirements every time I wanted something and never offering solutions for my finance needs, just more rules I had to comply with. Viraj was genuinely interested to get to know us and our requirements. He came up with a much better solution than we thought was possible and held our hands all the way through the process so our refinance and increase flowed almost seamlessly. He was also available to us anytime we had a question or needed to talk and would make time to come and see us a number of times during our refinance and since. Until now I had never thought of going to a Finance Broker because I always believed I had a great relationship with my Bank and that they would always continue to provide good service as in the past…so why go to a middleman if I have access to senior bank managers directly. My recent experience has changed my view. Viraj is now my Banker and I know if for any reason I have to change banks again in future or the next time my Bank Manager changes as they so often do, Viraj will still be there. If you have a financing need, whether business or home loan, I would recommend you talk to Viraj".GREG ALECKSON Principal

"We've known Viraj for many years now. He was our Relationship Manager at ANZ. As our banker, he was always available for us and provided a great service whenever we needed. Viraj has played an integral role in establishing Affinity Partners. Not only he arranged our banking needs but also advised us on many matters particularly during the challenging early days of establishing our new accounting practice. The trust and relationships have blossomed as we have a number of mutual clients. Viraj is very experienced banker who is passionate in helping his clients. I am very happy that since he established his own practice, he managed to deliver some great results to a number of clients. I have no hesitation in recommending Viraj to my clients "WILL CHristie
