Position: Chief Operating Officer - MLC Wealth

A spokesperson for MLC Wealth has confirmed to Industry Moves the appointment of Anthony Lane as the firm's new chief operating officer (COO), effective 16 August 2019.

Lane joins MLC Wealth after almost five years at Westpac/BT Financial Group, where he served as COO investment solutions, COO advice, and, most recently, as a senior asset management consultant. Previously, he spent 13 years at Mercer and at the time of his departure in 2014 was the firm's London-based global COO.

Lane's appointment at MLC Wealth follows the recent appointments of Garry Mulcahy as group executive, asset management, and Tim Steele as group executive, retirement & investment solutions. Both will commence their new roles next month.

Also joining the leadership team next month is former CBA wealth management CFO Andrew Morgan, who has been appointed as both chief corporate services officer and chief financial officer.

MLC Wealth CEO Geoff Lloyd, who joined from Perpetual in September 2018, is building out the firm's leadership team as it moves towards separation from the NAB Group. Three positions are still to be filled on the ten-strong team, the firm said.
