Keith Ho is an outstanding finance broker based in Melbourne, Victoria, who is the co-founder of the multi-award-winning finance brokerage JKK Solutions.
What sets Ho apart from the rest is his passion for his clients and his willingness to achieve the most favourable solution for them. This is evident throughout his consultative process, where he always views the bigger picture when discussing and considering the best financial options for them.
Ho’s career to date includes starting his formal education at the University of Melbourne, where he completed a Bachelor of Commerce, Accounting and Finance. His high completion scores and positive attitude then led him to climb the ranks at National Australia Bank (NAB), ultimately finishing in a branch manager position with them.
Ho attributes his wholistic consultative process to the many clients he assisted during his time with NAB, where he ultimately realised that financing for consumers should not be about “quick wins”; the big picture needs to be considered when assisting people with meeting their life goals.
The JKK Solutions team, in which Ho has been an integral part, continues his legacy of a client-first philosophy, which has been the ultimate reason for their continued success.

How does he distinguish himself among fellow brokers?
“I believe all brokers are working very hard in a difficult market,” he says. “However, I have demonstrated continued growth, advocacy and performance on my client’s behalf, which is now recognised [for 10 consecutive years] in the Elite Broker awards.”
In 1990, Dixon got started with FAI, working in claims and as a team leader. From the late 1990s up until 2003, he worked at FAI and Suncorp in underwriting and as an area manager at VACC, CGU (South East Queensland). From 2003 to 2012, he got into broking and eventually started Dixon Insurance in 2013. Since then, he’s accumulated numerous acccolades, including Elite Broker, Diversity and Equity, and Fast Broker awards.
During the pandemic, Dixon challenged insurers over the Quarantine Act application to insurance wordings. His argument was that the Quarantine Act does not apply as an exclusion, as the Biosecurity Act was invoked by the Morrison Government, and this was not a subsequent amendment to the Quarantine Act. The test case in the Appeals court was won for Dixon’s client with a unanimous five-judge verdict.
He remains focused on transport, manufacturing, motor trade, engineering and large farm clients.
What are his plans for the future?
On a business level, “more of the same. I will continue to empower and encourage my staff to perform at their best as I have done for the last decade. I will continue to advocate for my clients, embracing new technology and being open to business and industry changes.”
On a personal level, Dixon invests significant time, effort and funds, along with his GT3, to support many charities through his passion for motorsport. From participating in and sponsoring the Thunderbolt Run (which provides tens of thousands of dollars in support for Beyond Blue and Prostate Cancer), to organising and running the Track Knights for Amira charity night where 28 Exotic Supercars raised funds through passenger laps in wet conditions, Dixon states “this is our time to give back to the community and those in need. My friendships and association with those seeking to do the same, allows us to contribute to those less fortunate and raise funds and awareness”.
He adds: “To be able to give back to the community is rewarding and fulfilling. I am honoured to be in a position where I can raise funds for those less fortunate and in need.”
