Sam’s extensive experience in supporting institutions with their financial planning and advice processes is a perfect match for our goals, and will be invaluable as we continue to evolve our offerings.”

Sam Turner added:

“I join at an exciting time for the business. The breadth of EV’s market-leading capability, coupled with an encouraging regulatory landscape provide the perfect environment to support a business I’ve admired for some time, in enriching our clients’ offerings while improving consumer access to financial guidance and advice. EV’s technology is truly innovative and recent developments to its financial planning and advice solutions have the potential to enhance engagement and access to financial products and services. Its suite of modular solutions not only meet today’s digital hybrid demands but also support a multichannel approach which I expect to drive future industry growth."
