Dow Jones names new broker reporter

Kevin Noblet, the managing editor of wealth management at Dow Jones Newswires, sent out the following staff announcement on Tuesday:

I’m pleased to announce that Corrie Driebusch is joining the wealth management team and taking over the Broker’s World beat, effective June 18.

Corrie has been with Newswires’ hot stocks desk since 2010, focusing on financial companies, especially asset managers. She has also contributed to markets coverage, particularly during the planned Deutsche Borse/NYSE merger. Before joining Dow Jones, she spent nearly three years at Institutional Investor News, first covering hedge funds and then equity and options market structure.  She graduated from Northwestern University in 2007 with a double major in journalism and political science, and a concentration in economics.

Please join me in wishing Corrie much success in her new assignment.
