Qantas Super chief executive, Michael Clancy, has been appointed as chair of the CFA Societies Australia’s Australian Governance Council. 

Clancy had more than 25 years’ experience in the financial services industry and was a specialist in superannuation, investment, and insurance. He was also a director of the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA). 

He had worked as CEO at Qantas Super since November 2015 and previously worked for 15 years at NAB.

“Michael brings strong governance and strategy experience, gained in investment management leadership roles and board positions, including membership of investment associations and large not-for-profits.”

Clancy said: “It’s a privilege to be the inaugural chair of the CFA Societies Australian Governance Council and I look forward to working with everyone involved in the local CFA Societies as we encourage candidates, serve our members and advance the purposes of the CFA Institute in Australia.”
