Owen, who joined from Philo Capital where he served as CIO, has over 30 years of experience across financial services, which includes senior executive roles in major Australian and global banking groups.
"Ashley is our most significant hire in many years and sets up for the next stage in our growth plan," Stanford Brown's chief executive, Jonathan Hoyle, said.
