Industry leaders to talk
Despite their similar objectives, it is rare to get the leaders of the key superannuation industry organisations presenting at the same forum, but CMSF 2008 has emerged as an exception to that rule.
At this year’s conference, the chief executive of the Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees, Fiona Reynolds, will join with the chief executive of the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia, Pauline Vamos, the chief executive of the Investment and Financial Services Association, Richard Gilbert, and the executive manager of the Industry Super Network, David Whitely, to discuss the industry’s priorities.
In particular, the four industry group leaders are expected to discuss what the newly-elected Federal Labor Government should be doing with respect to superannuation policy.
Differences are expected to emerge between the four participants with respect to how the provision of financial planning should be handled with regards to superannuation, particularly with respect to commissions-based arrangements.
