Terry Paule - Co-Founder Findex and Serial Entrepreneur

Starting a transformative business is a bold move—but starting one with your brother, and only five years out of university, takes vision and confidence. In 1987, Terry Paule and his brother Spiro founded Financial Index, now known as Findex, with the goal of revolutionizing how Australians approach accounting and advisory services. What began as an innovative idea has grown into a national powerhouse with over 110 locations across Australia and New Zealand and more than $28 billion in funds under advice.

Terry’s entrepreneurial spirit didn’t stop with Findex. Over the years, he’s diversified his efforts into ventures like Botanical Water Technologies and My Life Biocheese, combining business success with a passion for sustainability and global impact. His journey is a testament to the power of bold decisions and a commitment to making a difference.
