Systemic risk in the superannuation system likely doesn’t stem from funds themselves, but from their service provider relationships. Regulators need to be thinking harder about where and how it arises – something they’re not necessarily well set up to do.
Big asset owners and managers are embracing the private markets as one avenue for growth, but the complexity that brings to portfolios means they also need to get a better view of what might be decades of siloed information.

Ross Martin
Ross Martin, the former chief executive of Media Super and an experienced advisor to corporate super funds, has joined the listed wealth manager and planning group Fiducian Financial Services in a new role as head of superannuation.
Martin left Media Super at the end of 2012 after nine years with the fund and its merger partner Print Super. He was succeeded by Graeme Russell from timber industry fund First Super.
Martin spent 16 years advising corporate funds for Aon Consulting, a division he established in Australia, before joining the industry fund movement in 2003.
He has been doing a range of consulting jobs over the past two years.
