Credit-focused fund manager La Trobe Financial has appointed former mortgage broker and Bendigo BDM Ben Flood to its Sydney distribution team.
A statement from La Trobe said Mr Flood’s appointment will help achieve “quality growth” in its NSW operations, bringing La Trobe's Sydney distribution team to three full-time staffers.
“In line with the company’s strategic expansion in the NSW market, Mr Flood will make a significant contribution to the team, because of his strong credit and commercial background and market knowledge,” said La Trobe Financial head of distribution Cory Bannister.
Mr Flood formerly ran his own boutique mortgage and finance business, BMG Financial Services, following a business development career and a stint as a private banker at St George.
