Biti moves to ING
Louise Biti has relocated within the ING camp to manager of technical strategy for ING Financial Planning (INGFP), broadening her previous role as RetireInvest technical manager.
Recently established as part of Mercantile Mutual's Australian ING division, INGFP acts as services group for a number of financial advice outlets, including RetireInvest and new dealer group Partnership Planning.
In her new role Biti will develop and provide technical support right across all INGFP financial planning businesses and dealer groups, and will be responsible for developing strategies.
Biti will also manage the development and delivery of technical training programs to raise technical skills of advisers, and work to create Government awareness of important client and adviser issues when creating policies.
Biti joined RetireInvest as a senior technical analyst in late 1996. In her new technical role she reports to INGFP CEO Mark Spiers.
