Brighter Super head of listed equities and ESG Fiona Mann was shaped by a childhood steeped in military-like discipline and global nomadism. Andrew McKean writes.
I was notified by my licensee that the ASIC Levy for the group's advisers is $2426 for this year. This is a ridiculous amount! As a single practitioner of a small practice, this is a huge contribution which will lead to an increase in client fees. It is an insult that James Shipton and the team at ASIC receive large salaries that we have to fund or part-fund. Further, he flaunts the regulations and will probably go unpunished.
