Appointments: November 2006
Tennant joins Direct Portfolio Services from Zurich, where she was most recently a senior research analyst.
“We are delighted to welcome Angela into our team. Her experience will be beneficial as we build the penetration of our product suite through dealer groups, advisers, platforms and external investment managers,” said chief executive officer of Direct Portfolio Services Tracy Byrne.
“Having pioneered this market since 1996, the self-managed account (SMA) segment is now attracting a lot of interest, particularly among the major platform providers, and we see Angela’s appointment as crucial to developing this market further,” added Byrne.
Tennant has over 10 years experience in financial markets and holds a diploma in financial markets from the Securities Institute.
