IOOF to Complete ANZ Advice Acquisition Ahead of Schedule
IOOF has announced that it will complete its acquisition of ANZ’s aligned financial advice businesses ahead of schedule and will obtain legal ownership of the businesses from 1 October.
The transition of ownership from ANZ to IOOF was announced mid-October 2017 with the deal, which also included the purchase of the ANZ’s wealth management and pensions business, scheduled to take a year.
While the four advice businesses owned by ANZ – RI Advice, Millennium 3, Financial Services Partners and Elders Financial Planning- will begin trading under IOOF’s banner from 1 October, the full transition of the other business arms will be completed in March 2019 and is dependent on the separation of OnePath’s life insurance business, which has been sold to Zurich.
