TAL appoints executive to drive corporate strategy
TAL has appointed Brad Clarke to the newly created role of general manager - corporate strategy and M&A.
Clarke will develop and enhance the life insurer's corporate strategy in partnership with TAL managing director Jim Minto and the company's senior management.
Clarke most recently worked at Oliver Wyman, advising financial services companies on strategy and operations.
He previously held senior strategy roles at AMP and CommInsure, and divisional management positions as chief operating officer at Newcastle Permanent Building Society, and as chief operating officer and acting chief executive at Tyndall Investment Management.
Clarke will report to Kent Griffin, TAL's chief financial officer.
"Brad has a deep understanding not only of the life insurance and broader wealth industries, but also of TAL from his time as a senior consultant to us," Griffin said.
Clarke predicted in a paper he co-authored that 40 per cent of the Australian life insurance market would come from direct sales by 2021, complementing strong growth in advised channels.
