The firm, which specialises in managed accounts, said it had grown with the popularity of separately managed accounts and was working with over 200 advice firms.

He said: “I love the energy and enthusiasm at Elston. They’re also a company with an impressive track record. They have a great story to tell and I’m looking forward to sharing it with advisers who are looking to embrace the advantages Elston managed accounts have to offer”.
Mark Smith, head of adviser services at Elston, said: “We’re excited to have somebody of Peter’s experience and calibre supporting our clients across Victoria and Tasmania. Peter’s passion to deliver great outcomes for both their business and their clients makes him a great fit for Elston”.
