Former ACCC chairman to headline MM Platforms and Wraps


The former chairman of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission, Graeme Samuel, will present new research on competition within the platforms and wraps space at the forthcoming Money Management Platforms and Wraps Conference to be held in September.
At the conference, to be held at the Vintage Resort in the Hunter Valley, Samuel will unveil the new research, and attendees will also benefit from the input of senior executives from the major platform providers, including BT Financial Group's Kelly Power, and Colonial First State general manager, product and investments Peter Chun.
The theme of the conference will be competition. A range of senior participants will discuss the make-up of the industry as it currently stands, while others question recent decisions around competition, not least the ACCC's decision to reject National Australia Bank's acquisition of AXA Asia Pacific.
Samuel will not be the only speaker to unveil new research, with a number of other speakers also expected to inject new information into the debate.
The conference will be held on 5 and 6 September.
