Eamonn Keogh is the co-founder of Duo Finance. His banking career started in 2004 after leaving the health and fitness industry to join ANZ where he spent 5 years before moving on to Westpac to continue working in Business & Commercial Banking.
Eamonn left banking in 2013 to start his finance broker career and after several years he founded Duo Finance with long-time trusted colleague Chris Anesco in 2020.
With a passion for helping business owners, Eamonn’s focus is around traditional business lending, cash flow lending, debt restructuring & property investment. He takes a personal approach to his work, building strong partnerships with clients and other advisors to provide tailored solutions.
Chris Anesco is the co-founder of Duo Finance. He has been working in the finance industry since 2004 and holds a Diploma in Business (Banking and Finance) from RMIT, a Certificate IV in Financial Services and Mortgage Broking from UNSW, a Diploma of Financial Services from the AAMC Training Group and a Bachelor of Business (Accounting) from Swinburne.
With a specialisation in residential lending, Chris also possesses key strengths in finance structure, product knowledge, research and building partnerships with clients, broader business & banking networks. Some areas where he can assist include investors looking to develop their property portfolios, and homeowners in buying their dream homes, upgrading and renovating.
As Chris’ focus is building long-term partnerships, he ensures their loans remain competitive and that the product is appropriately matched with changes in their lifestyle. Like business partner Eamonn, Chris understands that the key to successful business is honest, regular communication, trustworthy partnerships and never forgetting to have a bit of fun.
