FSC chairman Greg Cooper announced today that Mr Brogden would depart at the end of the year to take up a new role as chief executive and managing director of the Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD).
"John has been a tremendous asset to the financial services industry and the FSC over the past five years as CEO of IFSA and the FSC," said Mr Cooper.
"He has significantly boosted the reputation and profile of the FSC and the industry, expanded its policy agenda to influence broader economic policy, and extended FSC membership to include trustee companies and public trustees," he said.
"Ensuring bipartisan support for no significant changes to superannuation and creating a financial services trade agenda for Australia – particularly on the Asian Region Funds Passport − are among the many things that John will leave in his legacy," said Mr Cooper.
