EP32: Rewiring Construction Finance for a Stronger Future

In this episode of Precisely Property, we sit down with Paul Reid, CEO of IPEX, to unpack one of the most pressing issues facing Australia’s construction and property sectors – payment structures and financial transparency.

Paul explains how payment processes in the building and construction industry currently operate and why long-standing inefficiencies and lack of transparency continue to expose developers, lenders and subcontractors to unnecessary financial risk.

We explore how IPEX, a purpose-built construction finance platform, is redefining how project funds are managed, ensuring that payments are held securely, distributed correctly and used only for their intended purpose. By protecting funds at every stage of a project, IPEX is helping to create more stable, transparent and collaborative industry relationships.

Paul also shares real-world examples of IPEX in action, revealing the biggest lessons learned from deploying the platform across more than $1.5 billion in projects. From addressing insolvency risks to improving trust across the supply chain, this conversation highlights how technology and finance can come together to deliver a more resilient future for the construction industry.

Under Paul’s leadership, IPEX has become a trusted partner to major developers and financiers including Goodman Group, WINIM, Fortis, Trilogy Funds, MaxCap and INGWE Capital. With experience spanning sales, operations and technology, Paul bridges the finance and construction sectors to deliver safer, more efficient capital deployment. Prior to IPEX, he spent over eight years in senior leadership roles at BCI Media Group (now Hubexo), including as Chief Operating Officer.

Tune in to hear how new payment structures and financial transparency can transform the construction industry, protecting all stakeholders and driving lasting change.
