The Board of E&P Financial Group Limited announced that current CEO and Managing Director, Peter Anderson, will step down from the role on 31 December 2023 and will be replaced by Ben Keeble, who is presently Head of E&P Capital. Mr. Anderson joined E&P in July 2019 with a specific mandate to address the various legacy issues within the Dixon Advisory and related funds management businesses. With the closure of the Dixon Advisory business completed and the exit from real asset funds expected to be finalised by the end of CY2023, it is now the appropriate time to transition leadership of the Group.

Mr. Keeble has more than 25 years' experience in the financial services industry. He is currently Head of E&P Capital, E&P's corporate and institutional business, which has established a reputation for providing premium investment banking and institutional broking services to many leading Australian corporations and institutions. Prior to joining E&P in September 2018, Ben was a Principal of Fort Street Advisers and has also held roles as Head of Financial Sponsors and General Industrials at UBS and Managing Director at CVC Asia Pacific.

Mr. Keeble will continue to lead the E&P Capital business until assuming the CEO and Managing Director role in January 2024. The terms of his employment as CEO and Managing Director of the Group will be announced to the market once finalised and in advance of him commencing in the role.
