At its General Meeting on 17 April, Vania Franceschelli was elected chairperson of FECIF, the European Federation of Financial Advisers and Intermediaries, created in 1999 to support and develop the role of financial advisers and intermediaries in Europe.
Franceschelli has been on the board of the Federation for several years and held the role of Vice Chair since 2019.
The meeting also saw the previous chairman, Martin Klein, elected as vice chair, with Paul Stanfield (Secretary General) and Marta Gellova (Treasurer) re-elected to their existing roles. The Board members thanked Martin for his hard work and success in driving FECIF forwards over the last three years.
"Over the next few years, FECIF intends to strengthen relations with Members of Parliament and the European Commission by continuing to participate in consultations, but also increasing direct meetings with the institutions working on the relevant dossiers."
Stanfield said: "Vania has been a very active and effective member of the FECIF Board for many years."
