Former Aon Hewitt Adviser Thanh Huu Tran Served with Two-Year Ban
ASIC has banned a former authorised representative of Aon Hewitt Financial Advice from providing financial services for a period of two years.
The banning of Thanh Huu Tran follows ASIC surveillance that found he was not adequately trained or is not competent to provide financial services, ASIC said in a statement.
ASIC said its surveillance focused on Mr Tran’s part in 2016 conduct by Futura Financial Group (a company of which Mr Tran was a director) that resulted in 331 Aon Master Trust (AMT) default superannuation members not switching to an AMT MySuper product.
The AMT MySuper product generally has lower fees and costs than AMT’s legacy default employer superannuation product, partly because MySuper products are prohibited from paying commissions to financial advisers.
