The company maintains strong links with the funeral industry as a leading funeral industry fund manager, providing funds management for both prepaid funeral plan products and funeral bonds.
Michael was most recently the CIO of Media Super. There, he successfully managed the merger of the fund with Cbus and oversaw the transfer of members’ retirement savings. Before that, he was the Head of Investment Strategy at LUCRF Super (which merged to now be part of AustralianSuper) and acting CIO at Kinetic Super during its merger with SunSuper (which is now part of the Australian Retirement Trust, following its merger with QSuper).
“The legacy of Foresters Financial as one of Australia’s oldest providers of investment bonds, coupled with its focus on empowering members and their families, was crucial in my decision to join the team.”
“I am looking forward to playing a role in the future success of Foresters Financial, as the market and regulatory changes allow for the next stage of growth and expansion”, Michael remarked.
We wish Michael all the best in his new role and continued success to the team at Foresters Financial.
