Peter Dine has taken over at the helm of Saturn Portfolio Management.

The independent financial advisory firm has a team of nine fiunancial advisers in Auckland and Christchurch.

Dine had worked as a consultant to MMC since leaving his position as head of Aegis last year, when ASB brought the platform under the remit of its head of securities.

Before Aegis, he was a business development manager at BT Funds Management and worked for AMP.

“Saturn Portfolio’s financial advice business had grown strongly following the acquisition of the local Van Eyk business. Peter is an ideal appointment with his 30 years of financial services experience specifically in business development and management. Peter’s appointment will strengthen the leadership of our Auckland and Christchurch offices and provide more focus on our role as a national independent financial advisory firm in the evolving regulated environment for advisers," said John McConnell, managing director.

Dine said he was excited to be joining the Saturn team. “ I have spent a lot of enjoyable years working for large corporates. It is now time to work in a different environment where I can work more closely with both staff and directors of the business on a daily basis."
