New board member for SMSFA
The SMSF Association has appointed Christine Franks to its board as its governance expert.
Ms Franks is a Fellow of the Australian Institute of Company Directors with more than 20 years’ governance experience and will take up her position with the SMSFA from 1 January 2024.
She is also Chair and CEO and Founder of Women in Aid and Development; Director of Gateway Bank; a member of Peridot Directors; and convenor of the Sydney Chairs Circle. In 2020, she was awarded the Member of Order of Australia for her significant service to the community through social welfare initiatives.
SMSF Association Chair, Scott Hay-Bartlem, said the SMSFA is “thrilled to have someone with Christine’s varied experiences join the Board”.
“She will be an invaluable addition, particularly with her breadth of knowledge gained from various board appointments and experience in governance, marketing, and consumer research,” he said.
“The Association and the superannuation sector are constantly evolving and adjusting to legislative changes, so to have someone that can be a positive voice in these conversations at all levels, as well as for our members, better positions us to make the correct strategic decisions for the SMSF sector.”
Ms Franks will replace Robyn FitzRoy who retired from the Board on 23 November.
