Fuchs appointed as AFA CCO


The Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) has appointed Anne Fuchs to the new role of Chief Commercial Officer (CCO).
Fuchs, who has sold her Brisbane-based business, will be responsible for income generation and servicing of AFA's commercial stakeholders including members, licensees and corporate partners. Fuchs, who took up the position today, has for the past four-and-a-half years consulted to the AFA on their strategic partnerships.
Fuchs worked within ING Australia, Colonial First State and BT Financial Group before establishing her business Pinnacle Practice which, in turn, launched MyDealerGroup. She has also partnered with Money Management in development of the Little Black Book of Dealer Groups.
MyDealerGroup has been sold to Steve Predeville's Forte Asset Solutions and Fuchs said she would be working with Forte through a transition period to ensure continuity for clients.
