“David’s seasoned and unique experience with both Personal and Institutional Retirement businesses and proven leadership skills will further strengthen our current momentum. His addition to our organization builds on the integrated foundation we have in place for our Personal Retirement platform and will help us to capture and drive considerable growth in this client segment,” said Sieg, in an internal announcement.

Sieg recently expanded the retirement team with two other hires (see “BofA Merrill Lynch Adds Two to Retirement Team”).
