PRESS RELEASE / Communiqué de Presse

Brussels, 29 th April 2014

(English) FECIF enters a new era

A number of changes have recently taken place in the FECIF Executive, as it enters a very important stage in its development and Facing many consultations at the UE level. For many years Vincent Derudder has been one of the main driving forces behind the Federation’s growth and development, helping to turn it into arguably the most important pan-European trade body. Following Mr Derudder’s recent retirement, David Charlet has become the new Chairman, with Johannes Muschik now taking on the role of Deputy Chairman. In addition to his FECIF role, Mr Charlet is the President of ANACOFI (1), the main French national association for financial advisors and intermediaries that he helped to found in 2004. Mr Muschik is also Chairman of AFPA (2), the Austrian Financial & Insurance Professionals Association. As part of these changes, Paul Stanfield has been voted in as the new FECIF Secretary General. Mr Stanfield has been the CEO of FEIFA (3) since its launch in August 2009 and will also continue in that role, combining the two responsibilities.
