At the AFA Fuchs was responsible for income generation and servicing AFA's commercial stakeholders including members, licensees and corporate partners and had previously consulted to the AFA on their strategic partnerships for four and a half years.
AFA chief executive Brad Fox said the association was disappointed in her departure but the Sunsuper role was "an outstanding opportunity, based in Anne's home city of Brisbane and we wish her all the very best".
Fuchs stated that she will remain supportive of the work of the AFA and the Your Best Interests initiative, which Fuchs helped to developed, "has the power to transform consumer confidence in advice".
