REST confirms resignation of Ronan Walsh

REST has confirmed the resignation of general manager investments, Ronan Walsh.

Chief executive officer of REST, Damian Hill, said he regretted Walsh’s departure and acknowledged the significant value Walsh had provided to the REST executive and investment teams.

“We wish Ronan well in his future endeavours,” he said.

Walsh took the position six months ago, moving across from VicSuper where he had been the fixed interest portfolio manager for four years.

The role of general manager investments included responsibilities for overseeing the investment governance functions and managing relationships with the fund’s asset consultant, custodian and external investment managers.
