SCHRODER INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AUSTRALIA LIMITED
Schroders Australia's Kellie Wood talks about winning a lot, so much so that it's become a well-intentioned joke with her co-workers - but it's this ambitious attitude that spurs her on every day. Eliza Bavin writes.

Nothing has ever been done to improve the supply side, in particular developers need to build roads and install utility reticulation which raises the price of producing ready to build lots in new suburbs. Stop supporting buyers and start supporting suppliers is the the answer, but this does not win elections. Politicised policy is always short term, benefit before next election, no sensible long term planning.
