Peter was an executive director of Tranwood PLC when it was placed in administrative receivership in August 1991. All non-bank creditors were repaid in full. Tranwood PLC remained solvent but lost its Unlisted Securities Market ("USM") listing. USM was a market set up by the London Stock Exchange in 1980 for the trading of shares of small to medium sized companies which did not qualify for a full listing, and which was discontinued at the end of 1996. Tranwood PLC was dissolved in 2000.

Peter was also an executive director of Carter Organization, Inc. which was placed into Chapter 11 in 1991.
