Andrew Coppin takes the reins at Wilson HTM
Wilson HTM has announced the retirement of managing director Steve Wilson, effective 27 October 2011. He will be replaced by current head of private wealth management Andrew Coppin.
After 27 years with the company in a number of senior roles, Wilson will become a director and provide consultation on the company's funds management business, corporate financing, Pinnacle and the Priority managed funds.
The change in leadership at the firm is part of a transition process for the 2012 financial year and beyond, according to Wilson HTM chairman Steven Skala AO.
"We are delighted to appoint Andrew Coppin to lead and profitably grow the business as an independent advisory firm, leveraging his broad wealth management experience with international and Australian firms," Skala said.
Coppin was excited with the prospect of helping Wilson HTM grow its business so it could achieve appropriate scale.
"I am supported by an exceptional team of people with a proven track record of delivering high quality advice, research, funds management and corporate advisory services to our clients," Coppin said.
