Allianz Retire+ has appointed Andrew Stewart as head of distribution wealth.

He joined from AUSIEX where he was head of advised distribution and service. He had 28 years experience in the market and formerly worked at CommSec Adviser Services, IOOF and Commonwealth Bank.

Allianz Australia Life Insurance CEO, Adrian Stewart said: “Andrew deeply understands the needs of planners and advisers. His experience and extensive network align to our refreshed distribution approach to deliver next generation retirement income solutions on platform.”

President and chief executive of Allianz Life Insurance Company of North America, Jasmin Jirele, would also join the board of Allianz Retire+ to provide global insights as the firm assessed how its experience in the US could be put to use in Australia.

Stewart said: “Our vision is clear, we are committed to delivering flexible retirement solutions to superfunds, platforms and advisers. These new appointments at the executive and board level will support our strategic reset in delivering better outcomes for all Australian retirees.

“Jasmine brings a wealth of experience building and leading Allianz’s retirement business in the US. We welcome her knowledge and expertise in pioneering products that are tried and tested in a more mature market like the US,” said Stewart.
