Stout is chief executive of ING Australia while Promnitz is chief executive of Mercer (Australia) and the head of Mercer’s broader Asia Pacific regional operations.

Perpetual managing director David Deverall remains chair of the organisation, while Macquarie Bank’s Peter Maher and Colonial First State’s Brian Bissaker remain as deputy chair.

Those re-elected to the board were MLC’s Steve Tucker and Maria Wilton from Franklin Templeton Investments.
