VicSuper CIO to invest in life after work
Former State Super Financial Services and current VicSuper chief investment officer, Oscar Fabian, has announced he will retire after a finance career that has spanned more than 30 years. Fabian, a senior fellow of FINSIA and board director with Regnan, oversaw and evolved VicSuper's investment philosophy and strategy, and implemented a major restructure of its investment portfolio to a core and satellite model.
VicSuper chief executive, Michael Dundon, said that Fabian's commitment to the organisation, including the establishment of an investment committee, had left the company in good stead.
"He has been instrumental in enhancing the fund's investment model and performance," Dundon said.
"I would like to thank Oscar for all he's achieved... [we are] now better placed to deliver consistent, long-term returns for our members.'
VicSuper will now commence the recruitment process to replace Fabien, who will be seeking non-executive directorships and will spend his retirement enjoying farming work and caring for his grandchild.
