Relative Return Insider: Political shift...

In this week’s episode of Relative Return Insider, Financial Services Council CEO Blake Briggs joins the show to break down what the federal election and new-look Treasury portfolio mean for the financial services industry.

Briggs explains that Dr Daniel Mulino enters the financial services minister role with a suite of policies announced under his predecessor but not yet completed, stressing the importance of taking a deliberative approach that would allow Mulino to put his own stamp on the portfolio while continuing the reform process.

Listen as they discuss:

• The importance of stakeholders engaging constructively with the government on financial services reform.
• Why the $3 million super tax remains a contentious issue, and the need to rethink its design.
• Where the Coalition will look for economic policy in the wake of its heavy election loss.
