Superpartners chief executive Peter McNeil has joined the board of the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA).
McNeil will fill the gap left by former Pillar Administration chief executive Peter Beck, who was service provider representative on ASFA.
Beck resigned his position as director late last year.
ASFA chair and Sunsuper chief executive Tony Lally welcomed McNeil and said his deep industry knowledge and experience made him a great addition to the board, particularly during SuperStream implementation and now that governance had become an important industry issue.
"The board would also like to take this opportunity to express their gratitude and thanks to Peter Beck, who was not only a deep contributor to strategy and governance issues but was also able to provide invaluable insight into the cost-benefit analysis of policy positions due to his working knowledge of administration," Lally said.
"This is such an important year for the super industry and for ASFA. The ASFA team under the guidance of CEO Pauline Vamos have an enormous workload delivering on the ASFA strategic plan.
"The game has changed and the ASFA Board has many challenges before it - and I am confident that with the leadership both within ASFA and at the board level, we are able to meet those challenges," said Lally.
