John Corbyn has joined OMW from Axa Wealth where he was head of specialist products sales. Corbyn recently spent a short period at Phoenix Group when AXA Wealth’s pension and protection business was sold to Phoenix in 2016. Corbyn will help advisers who are advising on pension transfers.
Meanwhile, Ash Kapasi has joined OMW from Brooks MacDonald where he was a business development manager. Kapasi has more than 20 years’ experience in the tax and trust industry, and specialises in helping advisers and their clients to achieve their financial planning goals. He has also worked at Canada Life in the UK.
The two hires follow the recent appointment of pension specialist Jamie Clarke, who joined Old Mutual Wealth’s 21-strong UK specialist sales team.
Scott Goodsir, managing director of UK distribution, Old Mutual Wealth, said: “It’s a pleasure to welcome both John and Ash into Old Mutual Wealth.
“Their combined industry experience of over 50 years will make them both real assets to our growing team. We continue to bolster our specialist support team with industry experts to make sure advisers are given the right support to continue to provide excellent outcomes for clients in a rapidly changing regulatory landscape.”
