Bravura appoints APAC MD
Bravura Solutions has appointed Paul Dunn as Asia Pacific (APAC) managing director to scale the firm’s business in the region.
Dunn was previously client relations and sales director for APAC at the firm where he had worked for three years. Prior to that, he was national manager for institutional relationships at ANZ Wealth.
His role would focus on scaling the APAC business across Bravura’s full range of products and services and accelerating existing and new opportunities in the market. He would also be part of the firm’s leadership team, reporting to chief executive, Nick Parsons.
Parsons said: “This regional appointment will strengthen our ability to meet the increasing demand for Bravura’s ecosystem of products within APAC. Paul’s role will help to ensure the successful delivery of our solutions at a localised level, providing regional autonomy and control to ensure local market alignment. It forms part of a wider strategy to deliver exceptional customer experiences and extend our market-leading position within the region”.
Dunn said: “It’s a transformational time in the APAC market. We are seeing accelerating demand for our product suite, particularly our Sonata Alta and Digital Advice propositions. Our private wealth, portfolio administration and microservices solutions further extend our wealth management offering, ensuring Bravura is well positioned to support and respond to local market needs.
“This investment into the extension of our product suite really demonstrates our commitment to broadening our footprint in the region.”
