Morningstar appoints head of sales
Morningstar Australasia has appointed former Macquarie Adviser Services strategic business manager Nigel Crampton as its new head of sales.
Crampton will report to Morningstar Australasia chief executive Anthony Serhan, who said the hire was important given the growth in the group’s capabilities in the Australia and New Zealand region in recent years.
“Nigel has extensive experience and understanding of clients in the adviser and institutional markets, and will complement our team greatly,” Serhan said.
Crampton will be responsible for sales and client relationship management in Australia and New Zealand for Morningstar’s investment data, research, and software solutions for financial advisers and institutions, the group stated.
Crampton was at Macquarie Adviser Services for 14 years where he was responsible for distribution of the Macquarie Wrap platform in New South Wales, Morningstar stated.
