Goodall to head ANZ dealer group
ANZ has appointed formerINGadvice and dealer groups executive director Mike Goodall to head up its advice business, following the decision late last year by incumbent general manager ANZ Financial Planning, Dean Nalder, to relocate to Perth.
Goodall, who left ING and later joined planning group Ritchie and Partners Financial Services as managing director, will commence in the role on February 16 alongside Nalder.
Nalder will remain for a brief transitioning period until March 1, before relocating to Perth, having accepted the role of personal banking state manager for WA/SA.
The move, as first reported inMoney Managementin November, comes after 18 months running the bank’s planning division, which has close to 300 advisers and in excess of $7.5 billion in funds under advice.
In addition to his previous role with ANZ’s joint-venture partner ING, Goodall, with close to 20 years fund management and financial planning experience, spent eight years in senior product management and marketing roles with the Dutch group.
Goodall holds memberships with the Australian Institute of Company Directors, the Australian Financial Advisers Association, and the Financial Planners Association and lectures at the Australian Securities Institute.
The decision by Nalder to move west was a personal one he says, as he originates from Perth and was keen to return there with his family.
The new role is a “win-win” Nalder says, as the bank was also keen to have someone on the ground in WA.
