A new chairman will take charge of Finity Consulting, Australia and New Zealand's independent and actuarial consulting firm, after a 42-year industry veteran retires from the role at the end of the year.
Tim Andrews has been appointed chairman of Finity, to replace Colin Brigstock, who will step down from the role after being with the firm since its establishment in 2005 – first as managing director, then as chairman since 2007.

“Tim’s incredibly broad market experience and leadership qualities make him an excellent choice as chairman of Finity,” managing director Scott Collings said. “His appointment also comes at an exciting time for the firm, as we continue to grow and broaden our consulting business and as the demand for data analytics accelerates.”
Collings also thanked Brigstock for his 10 years of service as chairman, crediting him as “one of the key reasons why Finity is now the largest independent actuarial and analytics firm in Australia and New Zealand.”
“It’s a tough act to follow, but I have no doubt that Tim will transition seamlessly into the chairman’s role and ensure Finity continues to go from strength to strength,” he said.
“I look forward to continuing Colin’s focus on the needs of clients both within and outside of insurance as well as and the development of our younger people as we expand into new areas," Andrews said.
