Elana Rubin receives lifetime achievement award



NAB/MLC director and long-standing superannuation fund trustee/director Elana Rubin has been awarded the inaugural Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees (AIST) Trustee Lifetime Achievement Award.
Rubin received the award during this week's Conference of Major Superannuation Funds (CMSF) on the Gold Coast.
She last year retired as the chair of Australia's largest industry superannuation fund, AustralianSuper.
Congratulating Rubin on receiving the Award, AustralianSuper chief executive Ian Silk said she had been instrumental in establishing AustralianSuper, first as a founding director, then as the fund's chair for the next six years.
