NGS Super expands planning
Industry superannuation fund NGS Super has moved to boost its financial planning capacity with some key appointments.
The fund announced today that it had appointed former Industry Fund Financial Planning executive Andrew Dunkerley as manager of financial advice and education while Maria Maganic and Darryn Studdert had been appointed as financial planners.
Commenting on his appointment, Dunkerley said the fund's in-house financial planning offering would focus on encouraging members to become engaged in their own wealth creation strategies.
"We will also enhance our financial advice services by working on our existing telephone and face-to-face services, while developing an online advice model," he said.
Studdert and Maganic join NGS Super from Mercer and both are Certified Financial Planners.
