Dwyer given several curtain calls
Rollover wishes his very best to industry stalwart and recently departed First State Super chief executive, Michael Dwyer.
It is a measure of Dwyer’s standing in the superannuation industry that he was granted so many farewell appearances that one or two wags were suggesting that he was either John Farnham or Dame Nellie Melba without a singing voice.
Dwyer was of course the 2018 recipient of Super Review's Lifetime Achievement Award and was granted the privilege of giving the 2018 industry oration at November’s Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia conference in Adelaide.
While he may have departed the challenges of being a fund chief executive, Rollover knows that Dwyer will not be lost to the industry or his charitable pursuits. Expect to see him on a few industry boards and continuing his work with the UNHCR.
Good work, Michael.

The Rollover
Rollover is a jaded hack who joined the staff of Super Review nearly two decades’ ago and never managed to summon the energy to leave. Known throughout the superannuation industry as a power-luncher and gossip, Rollover spends his time humouring fund managers, eavesdropping at conferences, dozing through briefings and looking for his next free meal.

With rainy weather abound in Sydney, Rollover was sat in front of his TV watching the smorgasbord of niche documentaries free-to-air has to offer.
As a history buff, Rollover is well-aware of the importance of the role the vanguard plays in a military force, as the leader at the front of battle.
Now that crypto investing is mainstream, with Rest Super announcing it will put a portion of its funds into it, Rollover wonders whether his grandkids will think he is hip when he shows them his crypto balance in his new digital wallet.
Rollover is almost as fascinated by superannuation fund mergers as the deputy chair of the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA), Helen Rowell.
