Tricia Peters
Managing Director
I became a financial adviser so I would be able to use my expertise to make a real difference to people’s lives – that really felt wonderful.
I knew that women suffered significant disadvantage in terms of securing their financial futures and I wanted to create an advice business that was uniquely tailored to women’s needs.
My life experience and past achievements gave me the courage to take on this new challenge, so I created a business that specialised in working with people during and after divorce.
I knew that this would be a time when clients felt most vulnerable and would need the best advice, plus a safe zone to make the right decisions. It’s a really daunting time, often full of many ‘firsts’ and steep learning curves.
I am really proud that our specialty is simplifying your financial affairs so you can focus on living your life. I am also really passionate about transforming women’s lives – it’s that simple.
I am a Certified Financial Planner™ with over 15 years experience. I have spoken at international conferences, lectured students in financial planning in Australia and Asia, and am a co-author of Australia’s first financial planning textbook. I also have a Masters of Business Administration and an MPAcc, as well as financial planning qualifications.
I also really understand what you are going through.
You are in the best hand

“Invaluable. Peters McKeown provided advice particular to my specific circumstances, to allow for long-term investment of a portion of my limited funds, as well as reasonable flexible access to money given mine and my children’s unpredictable circumstances.”
