GST issues and wealth management presentation

Bill Packwood

Bill is Head of GST for the AMP group and has been with the group for the last 13 years. During the last 13 years, AMP has faced significant GST issues including the demerger of its European operations, financial services reforms in 2004, the introduction of Member Advice Fees and more recently, the merger with AXA and the restructure of its funds management business. The current regulatory environment is particularly dynamic with major changes to advice networks and superannuation reform with the added complexity of GST law changes, all of which make for challenging times ahead. - Current at 27 August 2012
