AIA Australia CEO Damien Mu has been elected to the Financial Services Council (FSC) board.
Mu joined AIA Australia in 2007, and his roles have included head of group insurance, chief distribution and marketing officer and general manager of life insurance.
Before that, he was the operations manager for Australian Super and national manager of insurance and claims services at Superpartners.
He was also in the retail master trust sector at Colonial, and Aviva's British arm Norwich Union, before it was phased out.
"With more than 17 years' experience in the Australian financial services industry, spanning operations, claims and underwriting, superannuation, investments, distribution, product, pricing and marketing, Damien brings a wealth of experience to the FSC Board," FSC chairman, Greg Cooper said.
The FSC Board now has Greg Cooper as chairman, BT Financial Group CEO Brad Cooper and Perpetual Limited CEO Geoff Lloyd as co-deputy chairmen.
