AFG has appointed Cameron Smith, former head of risk in wholesale banking at National Australia Bank, to the role of general manager AFG Home Loans.
Smith has been in the banking and finance industry for approximately 20 years.
AFG’s managing director Brett McKeon said Smith’s role at AFG will be the strategic development, sales and general management of this growing division within the company.
“AFG is thrilled to have attracted someone of Cameron’s calibre at such a pivotal time for the company.
“Cameron’s experience within the mortgage market and his significant exposure to warehouse funding presented us with the perfect match in terms of who we were looking for,” he added.
The appointment comes as AFG ramps up its activity in the securitisation market. AFG recently successfully priced a $300 million Residential Mortgage Backed Securities (RMBS) transaction, the second RMBS transaction for AFG this year. The $300 million pool of home loans were originated through the AFG network and are managed by the AFG Home Loans and Securities teams.
Smith holds a Bachelor Degree in Commerce & Arts with honours in Economics and Finance from the University of Melbourne, a Graduate Diploma of Applied Finance and is a Chartered Financial Analyst.
