Investment Standards in Super

Are you confident that you are getting the most out of your asset consultant and fund manager?

AIST has created a new interactive workshop to demystify 'investment speak' for trustees and fund executives. After consultation with our members, the focus will be on investment risk management and 'real life' case studies. The materials are practical in nature to equip you to actively question and participate in the investment decisions that affect your members' retirement outcomes. The format of the course is over two non-consecutive days. We would also be pleased to facilitate an in house session for your fund if more convenient.
