Brash says transparency is on the way for Huljich
Brash says Huljich has already begun to undertake some of the requirements set out by the Government Actuary.
The KiwiSaver watchdog, David Benison, decided it needs to monitor the fund manager more closely, and will require its trustee, Trustees Executors, to ensure a signed Statement of Investment Policies and Objectives is in place by the end of the month, something Brash says the firm has been working on for several weeks.
"I have every confidence that I will be able to satisfy the Government Actuary that our scheme is carefully and responsibly managed," Brash said in a statement. "We have every intention of being a leader in the KiwiSaver industry in terms of transparency."
Brash was forced to step up to head the fund when principal Peter Huljich resigned after it was revealed he had been using his own money to top-up its funds to improve the firm's reported investment performance. The Securities Commission is investigating the issue.
