Fairweather replaces Gilbert at FICA
Australian Financial Markets Association (AFMA) executive director Duncan Fairweather has been named as the successor to Richard Gilbert as chairman of the Finance Industry Council of Australia (FICA).

Gilbert has served as chairman of FICA for two years.
Fairweather has been executive director of AFMA for eight years while his background includes almost 30 years within the public policy and government relations in the financial markets, banking, property and manufacturing industries.
