Denise Voss has been appointed as the new chairman of the Association of the Luxembourg Funds Industry (ALFI), replacing Mark Saluzzi.
Voss’s new role is effective immediately and will run for a period of two years. She has been vice chairman for international affairs for ALFI since 2011, and a member of the ALFI board of directors since 2007.
She is also chairman of the European Fund and Asset Management Association (EFAMA) Investor Education working group. She has worked in the Luxembourg finance industry since 1990, and is currently conducting officer at Franklin Templeton Investments.
Voss said: “The asset management industry in Europe has gone through dramatic change over the past few years, with extensive regulation that has been put in place following the crisis, and ALFI has played a key role in working through the implementation of this regulation.”
“Going forward, we face different challenges, for instance, from the greying of the population and more and more individuals being responsible for funding their own retirement, to the growth of digital technology, which means that buying habits are changing dramatically.”
“My role is to inspire the industry to focus on these issues and to ensure that the Luxembourg Fund Industry continues to play a key role in driving the development of the industry worldwide, encouraging economic growth and providing long-term financial security for individuals.”
