Numbers do not just narrate a financial tale of a business, but they shape decisions, determine stability, and open doors to growth. Accounting is no longer limited to checking boxes in the modern business environment where enterprises run internationally and face uncertain economies. It has now been adopted as an instrument of prediction, strategy, and protection particularly in markets where risks and opportunities coexist.
Often described as the firm that goes beyond compliance, Investment Plus Accounting Group has carved its distinct space in the industry. The firm was established with the understanding that the businesses deserve more than simple compliance, and thus decided to fill a gap that most businesses encounter; creating strategies that help them protect their assets and foster long-term prosperity. Since its inception, the vision has been the same: to empower clients to have financial structures that would minimise tax while ensuring their wealth is preserved for generations to come.
A Client-Centric Approach
To the founder and his team, accounting is not merely paperwork but the ability to determine the risks that usually remains hidden. This starts with a thorough consultation process, in which financials are read attentively. From potential insolvency to inappropriate debt arrangements or inefficient business structures, the team’s focus is on foresight and precision.
To add further, the association with a client is much deeper than just tax filing. Peter Ristevski, CEO, Investment Plus Accounting Group says, “We place great emphasis on guidance and ensure that clients receive continuous advice on issues ranging from property purchases to new businesses”. Also, this individual focus is reinforced by the aspect of accessibility; clients are not kept at distance but are encouraged to reach out directly.
To the team, no client is small enough to be left behind. The most notable example is a small client that once approached the firm for a basic certificate and has since flourished to become one of its biggest clients a relationship that is based on mutual trust and vision.
Distinctive Strengths & Expertise
The uniqueness of Investment Plus Accounting Group is its expertise in understanding financial structures. Although several accountants stay compliance-oriented, the firm has developed its own proprietary methods of establishing entities like trusts that are not subject to expiry after the traditional 80-year limit. This enables the clients to think for generations instead of short-term solutions to safeguard their assets and prevent disputes in the long run.
The expertise behind these strategies cannot be found in textbooks. Peter’s journey has been shaped by mentorship from seasoned professionals in the top tier of the industry. He has distilled this knowledge into intellectual property, which now comprises the core offerings of the firm. Each team member is subjected to intensive training to have the same level of expertise spread across all client interactions.
Although technology simplifies the business, the philosophy of the firm is simple: it is not the instruments but the hands that operate the instruments that matter. In an era that places great emphasis on software implementations, Investment Plus Accounting Group believes true value lies in human insight and the ability to interpret the tax landscape in ways machines cannot. “This mindset is supported by the constant study of the Tax Act, breaking down complex provisions into practical strategies for clients”, says Peter.

Expanding the Footprint
Over the years, Investment Plus Accounting Group has received awards like Best Tax Accountants in Australia and has also been featured in magazines like Forbes and Smart Company. These achievements position it as a reliable advisor, yet it views them as the stepping stones instead of destination.
The road ahead is one of expansion and refinement. As demand increases, the firm is looking at new markets in Australia, with the emphasis being on Queensland and Victoria, while preparing to extend its expertise to the United States. As tax regulations evolve and business dynamics change, the team is determined to stay a step ahead, adapt strategies to new realities while maintaining their client-first philosophy.
To Peter and his team, the equation is simple: when clients grow, they grow. And through a model created on trust, experience, and vision, its path ahead is redefining what accounting can be for businesses today and tomorrow.
