Hutchison departs ClearView



ClearView Wealth has announced its chief executive of wealth management and advice, Alex Hutchison (pictured), will shortly depart the group.
Hutchison was instrumental in the transition of the wealth management business ClearView Retirement Solutions from BUPA, the group said in a statement to the Australian Securities Exchange.
He also oversaw the integration of MMC Contrarian and its sub brands, including ComCorp together with ClearView Retirement Solutions, to form an integrated planning business, the group stated.
With much of the integration and establishment now achieved Hutchison was departing to take on other challenges, according to ClearView.
