The Financial Planning Association (FPA) has found a replacement for the position of general manager of policy and government relations, which was left vacant following Gerard Fitzpatrick’s move to the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.

Dante De Gori of Clearview Retirement Solutions has been appointed to the role, although this is not the first time he will be working alongside the FPA, having participated in a number of FPA committees as well as being the chair of the FPA’s technical committee.

FPA chief executive Jo-Anne Bloch said De Gori’s experience would be a valuable asset to the FPA’s management team.

“Dante brings with him a wealth of technical expertise and a deep understanding of financial planning and the FPA,” she said. “Dante is well known to the financial planning community for his sound strategic advice, clear and plain English presentations, and his ability to address the legislative environment positively.

“The policy agenda for 2010 remains challenging,” Bloch added. “Dante is well equipped to lead the FPA through the implementation of the [Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services] recommendations, along with responses to the Henry and Cooper reviews.”

De Gori has been technical services manager at Clearview since 2007.
