It was during a family sojourn to the seaside town of Pescara, Italy, Rob DeDominicis first laid eyes on what would become the harbinger of his future. Andrew McKean writes.
That's all well and good, though Corporate Super is still unworkable in light of MySuper and FOFA.
The situation is now that when a member leaves their Employer and is retained by the Fund Manager, they will continue to be charged a fee (both Choice and MySuper members) that used to be paid on to the Planner but will now be retained by the Fund Manger.
This is clearly not in the best interest of the client and is not in the interest of the planner as they are now not paid to provide their ongoing service to the member.
Clearly this needs looking at.
