“He brings a wealth of experience in the custody and financial services sectors, together with a past contribution to ACSA itself,” Mr Knights said.

Mr Brown has three decades of experience in the financial services industry and was most recently managing director at Alford Brown & Associates. He has held senior positions at HSBC Australia, custodian and administration provider Ausmaq, the Commonwealth Bank of Australia and State Street.

“His knowledge and skills will serve ACSA well as our industry adapts to the strategic shifts underway in the financial services sector,” Mr Knights added.

“ACSA is a unique organisation that provides value to its members, and insight to broader stakeholders, in the interests of an efficient and vibrant securities servicing sector,” he said.
