Corebridge Appoints Moore as Retirement Services EVP, Elects Bousa to Board of Directors
Corebridge Financial Inc. announced that Aaron Moore has joined the company as retirement services executive vice president for strategic relationships. He will oversee the plan sponsor and consultant engagement strategy for the Corebridge retirement services business.
Moore has more than 26 years of experience in the financial services industry. He joins Corebridge from Lincoln Financial Group, most recently serving as senior vice president for institutional sales and client engagement. He began his career as a financial adviser.
“We’re excited to welcome Aaron to Corebridge Financial,” Terri Fiedler, president of retirement services at Corebridge, said in a statement. “His vast industry experience and knowledge will help us build even deeper relationships with plan sponsors and consultants in our target markets, to help educators, healthcare workers, government officials and non-profit professionals take action in their financial lives.”
Corebridge Financial also announced that its board of directors has elected Edward Bousa as an independent director, effective immediately. Bousa is a veteran portfolio manager with more than four decades of experience in the mutual fund industry.
When he retired from Wellington Management Co. LLC in 2020 after a 20-year career, Bousa was a member of the executive committee, a partner and the leader of quality value equity investment strategies.
“Edward Bousa’s decades of impressive investment success, skilled leadership and deep expertise advising companies on growth, innovation and optimal performance will be an asset to Corebridge,” Peter Zaffino, chairman of the board of directors of Corebridge Financial, said in a statement.
