STEP Australia is proud to celebrate our ongoing partnership with the Financial Advice Association Australia (FAAA). This year marks our second year collaborating, and we are deeply grateful for the opportunity to work alongside an organisation so dedicated to advancing professionalism and excellence in financial advice.
Our Chair, Jim O’Donnell TEP, together with Hari Maragos CFP TEP and Wayne Lear TEP, are honoured to be representing STEP Australia at the FAAA Congress 2025, connecting with industry leaders and contributing to important conversations shaping the future of our profession.
A special mention and thank you to Michael Berdon at the FAAA for his exceptional support in strengthening this partnership — we have truly valued his dedication and collaboration. We wish Michael well with his future endeavours, and we look forward to working more closely with his successor, Allison Dummett.
What a successful Congress to be part of — full of insight, innovation, and inspiring dialogue.
We look forward to continuing to strengthen our partnership with the FAAA and supporting the broader professional community together.
