EY has appointed Lisa-Marie McKechnie, a financial services professional with more than 17 years of experience in the areas of insurance and superannuation, as partner of financial services law.
Prior to the appointment, McKechnie advised a wide range of superannuation funds in the retail and industry space and has worked with several key life insurers and reinsurers, assisting them with the complex challenges posed by the ever-changing regulatory environment.
“We are delighted to have Lisa-Marie join our expanding financial services law team focused on servicing our financial services clients at this time of significant regulatory change and disruption,” said Michelle Segaert, partner of EY financial services law. “Lisa-Marie is a rare breed of being both a superannuation and life insurance specialist. Her skills will complement our existing banking and finance regulatory, licensing, and investment funds services.”
McKechnie is a regular presenter for both the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) and the Australian Institute of Superannuation Trustees (AIST), and is the NSW chair of the Australasian Life Underwriting and Claims Association.
