He is a well-respected economist, his analysis will be highly valued by our clients and he will integrate well with our market strategy offerings."

In his new role, Plank will be responsible for leading the Australian Economics team, as well as providing macroeconomic analysis and insight on the Australian economy. He succeeds Felicity Emmett who will continue as Senior Economist after she stepped down from the role earlier this year.

Plank will commence the role in February 2017 and will be based in Sydney.
