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.
Interesting strategy - buy up every one. How much is the spend up to now - $40M.
Perpetual walked away from this strategy with a $16M loss - unable to build scale. ANZ/ING have failed to build scale at Super Concepts.
I suppose acquisition is one way of getting to their 100,000 target funds under administration as set out in the Morgan Stanley assessment. But AMP have a long way to go and how much more will it cost.
