Skaffold extends distribution
Independent stock research company, Skaffold.com has moved to reseource its expansion into the financial services and Self Managed Superannuation Funds (SMSF) administration markets.
The company announced that it had appointed Trevor Clisby to lead its push into the new market areas.
Commenting on the appointment, Skaffold chief executive, Peter Simson said Clisby would be central to the company’s distribution strategy.
He said Skaffold had already proven itself as a successful research tool for DIY investors and he believed financial planners now represented an increasing segment of the company’s membership base.
