Working as he does, cheek by jowl with the staffers at Money Management, Rollover can report that financial planners do not appear to have seriously noted the lower profile of Industry Super Australia chief executive, David Whiteley.
For the record, Whiteley has always seemed tantamount to “click-bait” on the Money Management website with any mention of his name prompting a rash of somewhat negative comments from planners about industry funds in general and Whiteley in particular.
But perhaps those planners were only “playing the man” because he got in the way.
Whiteley’s profile has lately been lower than usual but planners are continuing to fulminate against industry funds.
For the record, Whiteley’s successor, Bernie Dean, takes up the role from the beginning of September.
