RI Advice Group appoints CEO
ANZ's RI Advice Group has appointed senior national manager, advice and operations, Peter Ornsby, as its new chief executive officer.
Ornsby confirmed the appointment in a LinkedIn post on 20 July, stating that he joined RI Advice in 2004 after leaving the travel industry after almost 20 years.
"RI back then was going through significant change, but I now understand change seems to be the norm and a business cannot improve without change," Ornsby said.
"We have a number of challenges ahead but with the strong tailwind behind us with almost 200 committed advisers, we can make RI the leading brand in financial advice."
The appointment came after RI Advice Group appointed former chief executive, Darren Whereat, to the new position of general manager, aligned dealers and advice standards.
