The organization also has some property holdings, which make up the total investment portfolio. Development of the SLSNSW investment strategy has now reached a point where a dedicated advisory committee of responsibility to the Finance Audit & Compliance Committee (FACC), is now required to advise the board and augment investment governance. This will both reduce the risk of policy and strategy lagging business needs and enhance investment returns utilised to support business operations. The investment portfolio of SLSNSW is considered relatively simple in commercial terms, and whilst requiring appropriate governance, does not warrant substantial expenditure on advice and reporting at this stage in its development. It does however require astute financial stewardship and oversight from skilled investment practitioners. Research shows that asset allocation and diversification within selected asset allocations are primary drivers of medium- long term investment returns. For this reason, the Board of Surf Life Saving New South Wales has approved the creation of an Investment Advisory Committee to maximize our investment returns. Expressions of Interest Surf Life Saving New South Wales seeks expressions of interest from members interested in joining the Surf Life Saving New South Wales Investment Advisory Committee (advisory subcommittee of the SLSNSW Board). It is envisaged the committee will meet approximately 2 times per year to provide feedback to the Board Ideally applicants will have substantial financial and investment management experience. The aim of the committee will be to provide feedback to the SLSNSW Board and FACC on the performance and make up of the organization’s investment portfolio, and to suggest ways performance can be improved within Surf Life Saving New South Wales risk parameters Interested members should submit a 1-page application to the Chief Executive Officer outlining your experience and skill you would bring to this Committee. All expressions of interest are to be forwarded to Steven Pearce via [email protected] and must be submitted by closing date Thursday, 25th July 2019. Feel free to contact the CEO if you wish to discuss this opportunity further. Yours sincerely, Steven Pearce AFSM Chief Executive Officer
