Harding-Davis to join AdviserLogic
Former Premium Wealth Management chief executive, Paul Harding-Davis, has been appointed as a non-executive director at AdviserLogic.
Along with his role, Harding-Davis will also contribute to sourcing and securing strategic partnering opportunities with larger licensees, accounting firms, and significant platform providers.
Commenting on the appointment, AdviserLogic executive director, Daniel Gara, said: "In appointing Paul we have a proven business builder and leader".
"His knowledge of Australian financial services licenses (AFSLs) from inside as a senior executive and externally as a consultant and distribution executive will greatly assist in identifying larger opportunities that are likely to be open to productivity-enhancing software," Gara said.
In June it was announced that Harding-Davis would leave his role as CEO of Premium Wealth Management and general manager of advice at Australian Unity Personal Financial Services for family health reasons.
Harding-Davis told Money Management that he was delighted to be getting involved in the technology side of financial advice.
He said he believed there was an important role for technology in the delivery of advice with some important calls needing to be made.
