AIST president resigns
The Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees' (AIST) president, Angela Emslie, has resigned from her position after serving on the board for 14 years.
The new president will be elected at the AIST board meeting in April.
"It has been a great privilege to help shape the not-for-profit super system and I'm confident that there is plenty of talent to continue our important work well into the future," Emslie said.
Catherine Bolger and Craig Peate have been appointed as trustee elected directors, and Mark Puli and a staff elected director.
Commenting, AIST chief executive, Tom Garcia said "I'd like to welcome Catherine, Craig, and Mark and look forward to their contribution during this important time of development and implementation of superannuation policy".
"I'd also like to thank departing board member Cate Wood — who also served as AIST president in the past — for her many years of service, as well as departed board members Stephen Pratt, Kate Andrews, Sue Gould, and Danielle Press," he said.
"Cate Wood had been one of the board's long-serving directors, and she has played a key role in supporting many policies including those that improve retirement outcomes for women."
