“We are delighted to achieve this milestone in our history and this successful divestment will allow Praemium to focus on the enormous opportunity that the Australian wealth market offers,” Praemium CEO Anthony Wamsteker said in a statement. “Morningstar has been a tremendous partner as we have worked collaboratively through the sale conditions, and is an ideal owner of the international business.
