A superannuation advisory body has been set up by the Government with representations from major industry associations.

The Federal Government has established a superannuation advisory group comprising leaders from the peak industry bodies.

Members of the group include FPA chief executive Jo-Anne Bloch, Investment and Financial Services Association chief executive Richard Gilbert, Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia chief executive Pauline Vamos, Industry Funds Management chair Gary Weaven, Institute of Actuaries of Australia chief executive John Maroney and Self Managed Super Fund Professionals' Association chief executive Andrea Slattery.

Telstra Super chief executive Terry McCredden and QSuper chief executive Rosemary Vilgin will also join the group.    

Representatives from the academic sector include Edith Cowan University head of accounting associate professor Marilyn Clark-Murphy and University of New South Wales, associate dean of the Australian School of Business, professor John Piggott.

 
 

The Government will consult the committee with regards to issues around superannuation and will aim to meet three times a year.

"The group has been established to provide a high-level perspective on superannuation issues and complement broader stakeholder consultations being undertaken by the Government," Minister for Superannuation and Corporate Law Nick Sherry said.
