In his new capacity, Kunnen will present at various adviser briefings and conferences to provide advisers with a stream of information and key advice on financial markets and the economy.

Kunnen has a wealth of experience and was previously chief economist of State Bank NSW from 1992 to 1997. During that period he also acted as non-executive director of Colonial First State. He has also served on a number of government and industry bodies, and has taught economics at Macquarie University in Sydney.
