 The Advance Financial Services Network, supported by the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research's Investment Promotion Division, brings Australians and their foreign colleagues in banking and finance together for networking events and discussion around Australia’s emergence as a global financial services centre in the Asian time zone.
Message from DIISR
The Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research is delighted to be the founding sponsor of the Advance Financial Services Network.
Australia's financial services sector is one of the largest and most profitable in Asia. With a workforce of unrivalled quality - and an economy ranked as the world's most resilient for the last five years - it is little wonder many of the largest global institutions, including 17 of the top 20 investment companies, run regional operations out of Australia.
Even as Australia has emerged as one of Asia's most important financial centres, Australians in the sector have become an internationally respected and and dynamic community of professionals. The Advance Financial Services Network will support and inform this community and, with DIISR's help, arm Australians with the contacts and up-to-minute information they need to act as authoritative ambassadors for the country. For more information visit www.innovation.gov.au.
Thanks for your support, and for your interest in Australia's burgeoning financial services sector. Look out for Advance's monthly financial services newsletter, and for news of upcoming events.
