Dalton-Brown was previously a non-executive director at TISA and will assume his new role with immediate effect. Prior to joining TISA, he held senior positions at Fidelity, KPMG Norwich Union and the Prudential. He also holds several non-executive posts at Barclays, where he was director of Barclays Funds until 2013.

Dalton-Brown takes the reigns from Tony Vine-Lott, who announced his plans to retire last August after 13 years with the association. 

“David’s broad experience of the UK financial marketplace, proven executive track record and knowledge of TISA and our activities makes him the ideal person to take our organisation forward,” said Clive Shelton, TISA deputy chairman and chair of the nomination committee.

“TISA has an important role to play in delivering effective policies, products and services to savers in the UK as it has a distinct perspective to both trade associations and consumer groups. Our membership, drawn from right across financial services, provides an ideal platform from which to tackle the important challenges that the industry and its customers face,” Dalton-Brown said.
