Kell and Bushby to discuss regulation
With the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) the ongoing subject of scrutiny by the Senate Economics Committee, Money Management has moved to examine the future of financial services regulation at a breakfast to be held in Sydney on 1 April.
The breakfast, which will include keynote addresses from ASIC deputy chairman, Peter Kell and one of the instigators of the Senate Inquiry, Tasmanian Senator and Government Whip, Senator David Bushby.
The breakfast will traverse not only the issues being examined by the Senate Economics Committee but also the implications which are likely to flow from the Government's Financial Systems Review in circumstances where the Financial Services Council has called for clearer delineation of the roles of the regulators.
The breakfast will include an expert panel with representatives from the major financial planning organisations including Association of Financial Advisers chief executive, Brad Fox, and the FPA's Dante De Gori.
