“The timing of this appointment does not affect the solid relationship that the MFAA has with ASIC, particularly with relation to the Broker Remuneration Review. Brokers can be assured that a close involvement with ASIC as part of this review remains a top priority for the MFAA.”

Stephen Bisgrove, Evan Thomas and Stephen Hale — who are part of the leadership team — now jointly lead the organisation while the search for a new CEO takes place.
