There has been a lot of focus on the banks over the past 12 months, and fair enough. Commonwealth Bank (CBA) has traded more like a growth stock, and its unexpected trajectory has warped not only its valuation but those of its peers. Whilst debate about the reasons for CBA's rally rages on, investors might do well to remember that the ASX financials sector comprises more than just the Big Four - hard to believe, we know. With that in mind, we've brought in the big guns to run the ruler over the other parts of the financial sector, including insurers and platform businesses. Joining host Chris Conway are Airlie Funds Management's Matt Williams and First Sentier Investors' David Wilson. Together, they talk about the opportunities beyond the banks, run the ruler over three other key financial stocks, and each share an ASX name they particularly like in the space. Oh, and just because we couldn't help ourselves, they also share whether any of the Big Four look appealing right now. Please note this episode was recorded on 30 July 2025.
