ASFA postpones conference to February 2021
The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) has postponed its conference to 3 to 5 February, 2021.
The ASFA Conference was due to be held in November 2020 in Brisbane but has been moved due to the increasing COVID-19 cases in Victoria and the “unfolding situation” in New South Wales, an announcement said.
The conference would still be held at the Brisbane Convention and Exhibition Centre.
“We think it is critical for the industry to come together in a physical environment to reflect on the challenges of the year past and refocus on bettering outcomes for our members,” ASFA said.
