AFA announces new GenXt chair
The Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) has appointed Wealth Enhancers financial adviser Sarah Riegelhuth to chair its 2011-2012 GenXt Committee.
Riegelhuth was a finalist in the AFA’s Rising Star of the Year Awards in 2008 and 2009. AFA chief executive Richard Klipin said her knowledge and passion for the advice industry make her a great choice for the program, which was designed to ‘bridge the gap’ between the current and next generation of advisers.
The committee’s role is to organise events and forums to facilitate the transfer of knowledge, experience, skills and networks between the generations.
“It’s no secret that, with [the Future of Financial Advice] reforms about to move from theory into practice, we have some challenging times ahead,” said Riegelhuth. “I look forward to helping our younger advisers navigate those changes.”
