Moira Buckley, Western Territory vice president at Prudential Advisors, has been elected secretary of Finseca, a professional community for financial advisors. Buckley will begin a four-year leadership progression that will culminate in her expected term as president in 2028-29.

Prudential Financial, Inc. (NYSE: PRU) announced the appointment on March 24. Buckley, a 33-year veteran of Prudential, was elected following a competitive nomination process and formal vote by Finseca's board of directors.

Marc Cadin, chief executive officer of Finseca, said Buckley brings "a rare ability to unite leaders, elevate the value of holistic financial advice and champion solutions that expand access for more Americans."
