Fahy departs FINSIA
The chief executive of the Financial Services Institute of Australia (FINSIA), Martin Fahy, has resigned.
FINSIA announced on Tuesday that Fahy would be departing his role with the organisation to “take up a leadership role with a consultancy firm”.
The organisation paid tribute to Fahy’s leadership of FINSIA and said that its director of professional accreditation, Sheena Frenkel, would continue to lead the development and roll-out of FINSIA’s Financial Services Professional credential.
It said a search firm had been retained to find a replacement for Fahy, who would work with the board to ensure a smooth leadership transition.
