Sunsuper has continued to fit out its executive team, appointing Justine Hickey to its investment committee.
Hickey brings 20 years industry experience to the fund as a non-executive director of Australian Ethical Investment and a director on the trustee board of Rio Tinto Staff Superannuation. She is also a member of Dalton Nicol Reid’s investment committee.
Sunsuper chief executive Tony Lally said Hickey’s broad experience across investment, financial markets, superannuation and corporate governance would be a welcome addition to the team.
“The purpose of the Sunsuper Investment Committee is to review, monitor and advise the board on the fund’s investment activities, with particular responsibility for investment management and performance, policy-setting, administration and compliance,” Lally said.
“Continued strong growth in Sunsuper’s assets gives us greater capacity to meet the dynamic challenges presented by the markets, and Hickey’s extensive career in investment management will prove invaluable as we move forward with plans to expand the fund’s portfolio.”
Lally said Hickey’s experience would complement the pool of talent Sunsuper already had.
