KPMG recruits to wealth management team


Former UniSuper head of corporate marketing, Maryanne Scroggie, and Macquarie Wealth's David Duncan, have been appointed to the wealth management and superannuation advisory business at KPMG.
Scroggie will take on the role as associate director, responsible for supporting profit-for-member clients in the areas of member engagement, policy, and retirement.
