Background:

The Scheme is managed by a trustee company (Trustee), in accordance with the Scheme’s Trust Deed. The Trust Deed requires the Trustee to have seven directors (Trustee Directors). Two Trustee Directors are chosen by you, the members, and the remaining five are appointed by Westpac (including one who is an independent trustee licenced by the Financial Markets Authority). You can read about all the current Trustee Directors here. You can also read a summary of the role and duties of a Trustee Director here.
