Big financial planning licensing and service provider, Entireti has appointed Geoff Lloyd as its new chair to replace Ray Miles, who will step down from the role after 17 years while remaining on the board as a non-executive director.

The parent company of subsidiaries including Akumin, Fortnum Private Wealth, Personal Financial Services and Entireti Alliances, said on Tuesday that the former boss of MLC and Perpetual Limited will provide strategic guidance to chief executive, Neil Younger, and senior leadership team as chair.

“We are excited to have Geoff join and lead the board at this pivotal time for Entireti. Geoff brings extensive experience to the Entireti board and his insights are invaluable,” Younger said.

“A key goal for us is to drive the productivity dividend inside advice practices, and the board plays an important role in helping us execute our strategy and realise our ambitions.”

Lloyd, who also chairs investment platform Stake and wealth technology provider DASH, said Entireti has built a strong foundation for future growth by combining strategic acquisitions with organic expansion.

“I’ve observed the evolution of Entireti with great admiration for Neil and his leadership team, and I’m inspired by their commitment to delivering meaningful improvements for advisers and the broader profession,” he said.

“Entireti has grown significantly, both organically and through M&A, and I’m excited to support the business as it tackles the biggest challenges facing advice practices and helps deliver quality financial advice to more Australians.”

Younger also acknowledged the contribution of outgoing chair Miles, saying “his stewardship has been instrumental in getting Entireti to where it is today”.

“Ray is arguably the strongest advocate for professional financial advice and the need to build sustainable advice businesses that this sector has known,” he said.

“We thank him for his counsel and unwavering support for both the business and the broader sector. We are fortunate that he will remain on the board and continue contributing to Entireti’s next stage of growth.”
