Peter Steele
Managing Director
As MD, Peter’s goal is to establish SIP Nordic SA as the provider of choice for structured products in South Africa. Unlike traditional investments, structured products provide market exposure and capital protection, which makes them very appealing in times of uncertainty.
Peter’s career in the financial services industries in both South Africa and Zimbabwe spans more than 30 years. Most of this time he spent in sales management, establishing distribution channels for some of the leading asset managers. These include TMA, Absa Investment Management Services, Cadiz Asset Management, Sasfin, and Northstar Asset Management.
