In America, they were already starting to build up, but in Europe, they were still very much in their infancy.
I don't think that they were going away, but it was still an even bet as to whether they were going to be big or not, right?
And actually, I started the year after the guys in iShares had been promoted from being in the cellar
So the iShares team had been put in the cellar of this building.
Um, you know, there's like 10 of them.
They've just put in the cellar, no windows, et cetera, et cetera.
So they'd only just been moved up into the first floor of the building we were in.
Uh, but yeah, um, I started at iShares, the credit crisis came, um, the GFC, uh, and, uh, ETFs became the net beneficiary of, um, a lot of the negative outcomes of the credit crisis.
Um,
So I stayed there for four years, five years.
I moved to ETF securities, which is the company I'm at now, but it was a European division.
Basically in sales roles and trading roles.
I moved to a company called PowerShares, which is the ETF division of Invesco.
And finally, the ETF securities team in London wanted me to come out to Australia.
So I came out here in 2015.
to start a franchise which was jointly owned between ETF Securities and ANZ.
ANZ then subsequently sold their share back to ETF Securities because Shane Elliott, who I'm sure many of the viewers know, is the CEO of ANZ.
He had different views on wealth management and a lot of the big bank CEOs have done the same.
They sold their wealth divisions
So we have sold as part of that.
