This year’s top 10 stories included a peek into AustralianSuper’s international equities build out in London, AMP’s move to slash employee benefits, and plenty of hard-hitting analysis of the issues that matter in institutional investment. But the real story is how readers helped shape all of that coverage.

SuperRatings formalizes consulting division
SuperRatings has formalized its consulting work with the appointment of Adam Gee, former superannuation services director at KPMG, to the new position of head of the consulting division.
Nathan MacPhee, SuperRatings CEO, said: “For the last decade SuperRatings has consistently undertaken consulting projects on behalf of clients, but we have never marketed our consulting services to the industry. Given the depth of our expertise, the significant market insights via our market-leading data and the rate of change in the industry, it is now a natural progression for us to push further into the provision of consulting services.”
The firm believes that there has been a big increase in demand for assistance by super funds due to the regulatory changes such as Stronger Super as well as tender management, product development and compliance work, which Gee will manage.
Gee starts his new role today. He spent more than 11 years at KPMG. Before that he was a business analyst at Colonial First State.
