ipac appoints new head of advice


AMP-owned dealer group ipac has rounded off its leadership team with the appointment of Matthew Fogarty to the new role of head of advice and business optimisation.
The appointment comes after ipac created a new leadership team in March, including three state-based general managers responsible for New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria.
Fogarty will be developing and implementing ipac's advice propositions including self-managed super funds and aged care.
Fogarty has over 20 years industry experience and was most recently national practice development manager at the van Eyk group.
He was a founding partner at practice consultancy firm The Encore Group, which sold to van Eyk in 2011.
Fogarty has provided strategic advice to many licensees and practices across Australia, recently focusing on helping practices adapt to the Future of Financial Advice environment.
ipac managing director Tim Steele said Fogarty has a proven track record of implementing quality advice initiatives to the business.
