SSB wins MBF mandate
Salomon Smith Barney (SSB) has been awarded the mandate to manage MBF’s $30 million corporate superannuation fund and provide financial planning to its MBF staff.
SSB Asset Management's corporate superannuation master trust was chosen as the vehicle for the fund after a full tender process. SSB says its tender came through on its wide investment choice and commitment to member education.
SSB has already conducted member education seminars for MBF in eight cities and regional centres around Australia.
