About Us

Neil Harnett

Harnett Financial Services was founded in 2004 by Neil, following two decades of experience as a Senior Financial Consultant with Canada Life in Limerick City. Drawing on his deep knowledge and genuine care for people, Neil established the firm with a simple goal: to provide clear, trustworthy financial advice to families and business owners. Over the next 21 years, he built lasting relationships with clients who valued his warm personality and steady guidance through life’s financial milestones. Neil’s approachable style and commitment to doing what’s right for each client became the foundation of Harnett Financial Services. After an impressive 41-year career as a financial adviser, Neil retired in 2025, leaving behind a proud legacy of integrity and care that continues to shape the firm today.

I became a Qualified Financial Adviser (QFA) in 2019 and joined Harnett Financial Services in 2023. My dedication to learning and professional growth led to earning the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER® designation in 2024 and completing a Master’s in Financial Services through University College Dublin in 2025. These achievements, combined with my experience working with clients, give me a deep understanding of what really matters when planning for the future. I enjoy helping people make confident financial decisions, whether that means securing their family’s future, planning for retirement, or growing a business. I believe that good financial planning starts with listening, and I take the time to understand each client’s unique goals so that every plan is both personal and practical.
