Davis, a board member since 2021, has been named interim chair, according to FMIC’s media release. Davis’s leadership is expected to guide FMIC through this transitional period as it solidifies its strategic direction.
In addition to these appointments, Wayne Robinson has resumed his role as FMIC’s CEO. Robinson, who founded the Robinson Group in 1980, served as FMIC’s CEO from its inception until 2014. His extensive experience in asset management and financial services positions him well to steer FMIC forward.
