Incoming chief executive of First State Super, Deanne Stewart, and Link Group managing director, John McMurtrie, have been appointed to the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) board, replacing outgoing directors Michael Dwyer and Suzanne Holden.
Stewart would fill the public sector representative vacancy and McMurtrie the service provider opening.
Directors Michael Clancy of Qantas Super, Chris Davies of TelstraSuper, David Elia of HOSTPLUS, and Leeanne Turner of MTAA Super were also reappointed.
Following the annual general meeting and board meeting held at the ASFA Conference in Adelaide this week, the ASFA board was made up of:
Independent Chair

With the merger between Mine Super and TWUSuper in its late stages, the head of the soon-to-be combined fund is the latest to join ASFA’s board.
The fund has announced new additions to its trustee board.
Brighter Super has confirmed an executive search is underway to succeed its long-serving chief financial officer Garnett Hollier.
