PensionsFirst Analytics creates sales team
PensionsFirst Analytics has appointed five people to the sales and client side of its business, which focuses on measuring and managing defined-benefit pensions risk.
Kim Lewin has joined the company as head of sales and will focus on marketing PensionsFirst Analytics' managed services to the largest UK pension funds. Lewin joins from SumTotal Software. Lewin will report to Benjamin Reid, CEO of PensionsFirst Analytics.
The company has also appointed Matthew Bale as vice president of client solutions - an actuarial role helping clients gain a precise understanding of their pension-scheme risk profile and potential de-risking strategies. Prior to joining PensionsFirst Analytics, Bale spent three years at Citibank's insurance and pensions structured solutions group focusing on the management of defined benefit pension risk. Three further sales-oriented people have also been recruited.
Launched in November 2009, the company offers PFaroe, a web-based service that allows users to see assets and liabilities on one platform, analyze cashflows and conduct scenario analysis in real-time.
