Risk specialist joins Bombora group
Risk advice specialist for medical professionals, MediBroker, has joined the Bombora Advice group as a principal practice.
MediBroker founder and managing director, Aaron Zelman, said he made the move as felt the specialist advice business model and operational infrastructure that help practice businesses grow would suit his firm.
Zelman also wanted access to advisers and specialist support services for his medical industry clients.
"I'm also confident that innovative new products and services will be the outcome of Bombora's working groups contributing ideas and concepts to manufacturers that are drawn from the ‘coal face' and personal interaction to address the protection requirements of Australian consumers," he said.
Bombora managing director, Wayne Handley, welcomed MediBroker to the firm and the team of risk specialists.
"Aaron's passion, professionalism and high profile advocacy promoting the benefits of risk protection are well known and will be a tremendous asset for Bombora further lifting the profile of the organisation and risk advice profession in general," he said.
