Chant West has announced the appointment of Don Sillar to its leadership team, joining the group as Head of Institutional Sales. Don has a wealth of experience in financial services in both the institutional and retail sectors including distribution, product management, client management and operations across wealth, financial advice, insurance and superannuation markets.
He has worked at a senior level with organisations including ANZ and E*Trade, as well as BT Australia, and his broad background encompasses international and domestic experience.
Chant West’s General Manager, Ian Fryer, said “Don is an experienced and respected professional who’s highly regarded in superannuation and investment circles. He has a strong customer focus, which will enable him to support the super and advice markets to empower their members and clients to make informed decisions. We’re confident he’ll bring a fresh and dynamic approach to our team.”
In further news, Chant West last week released its new Wrap Comparator dashboard, allowing users to compare key data such as platform fees and costs to assist in preparing the Member Outcomes Assessment. The dashboard is also a powerful source of market data for product managers and sales teams to inform the distribution of their platform products, encompassing wraps in the super, pension and investment universes.
