ING Australia business development manager (BDM) Russell Hannah has taken out the top honour in this year’s Money Management/Tribeca BDM of the Year Awards.
Hannah was awarded National BDM of the Year in Sydney last night following weeks of voting by financial planners and a decision by a judging panel of industry experts, who chose six award recipients from a list of 22 finalists.
Of this select group, Rural Funds Management BDM Gabriel Carey received both the Boutique BDM of the Year award and the state award for South Australia/Northern Territory.
The other state winners were Hemant Raval of AMP (NSW/ACT), Michael Angwin of van Eyk Research (Western Australia), Kate McDermott of Credit Suisse (Victoria/Tasmania) and Paul Slattery of AXA (Queensland).
For a full rundown of the awards, please refer to this week’s issue of Money Management.
Money Management and Tribeca would like to thank the financial services industry for its overwhelming interest in and support of this year’s BDM of the Year Awards.
