Recipient
Regional Prosperity Financial Advice, Colac VIC
We're proud to share that Regional Prosperity has been named Practice of the Year (3+ Advisers) by Personal Financial Services at the 2026 Accelerate Conference. The award recognises the advice and service we provide to families and businesses across regional Victoria — from our offices in Colac, Geelong, Hamilton, Warrnambool and Queenscliff.
What is the PFS Practice of the Year award?
Personal Financial Services is one of the country's largest advice licensees, with practices right across Australia. To be named Practice of the Year in the 3-or-more-advisers category — the award for established, multi-adviser practices — is something we're enormously proud of. It belongs to our whole team, and to the clients who've trusted us with what matters most.
Why does this award matter to us?
We built Regional Prosperity in the country, for the country. We don't think good financial advice should mean a drive to the city, and we've spent years proving that regional families and businesses deserve the same quality of advice as anyone in a capital city — delivered the way that suits country life, whether that's across the kitchen table, out on the farm, or by video and phone.
“This award belongs to our team, and to the families and business owners who trust us with the big decisions. We’re a regional practice, and what we care about most is being there — at the office, around the kitchen table, out on the property — when it counts. To be recognised for that, alongside practices from right across the country, means a lot to all of us.”
Kane Leersen, Founder & Director, Regional Prosperity
What does the award mean for our clients?
An award doesn't change the advice — but we hope it gives people confidence. If you're weighing up whether to talk to an adviser, it's one more sign that you'll be in careful, capable hands. It recognises how we work and the service we provide; it isn't a promise of any particular financial outcome, because every person's situation is different.
If you've been meaning to get a plan in place — for your family, for retirement, for the farm and the next generation, for your business, or just to feel on top of things — we'd love to help. You can meet our team, find your nearest office, or see all of our awards and recognition.
