Decision-makers debate 'The State of the Industry'
The Henry Tax Review, the 2009-10 Budget, industry sentiment, planner remuneration and regulation are all contentious issues that will be up for discussion at Money Management’s inaugural ‘State of the Industry’ breakfast seminar on April 29.
Money Management has organised a leading line-up of speakers representing different segments of the industry for this seminar.
Confirmed panellists are: The Hon. Senator Nick Sherry, Minister for Superannuation and Corporate Law; Barry Lambert, chair of Count Financial; Brian Bissaker, chief executive officer of Colonial First State; Jo-Anne Bloch, chief executive officer of the Financial Planning Association; and Vanessa McMahon, managing director of Wealth Insights.
Seminar attendees will have a unique opportunity to hear directly from these key decision makers and also ask questions of them (time permitting).
The breakfast seminar will take place on April 29 at the Four Seasons Hotel, Sydney, at 7:00am. The cost to attend is $45 (plus GST).
