APPOINTMENT
INVESTSMART
Date: November 2020
Position: Non-Executive Director

The longtime editor of Money magazine and current Canstar editor-at-large Effie Zahos is set to join the InvestSMART board.

Zahos left Money magazine last year following its acquisition by Rainmaker Information, which is the parent company of Industry Moves. She'd been with the publication since 1997. Zahos is also the author of two personal finance books, The Great $20 Adventure and A Real Girl's Guide to Money.

"With a background in banking, Zahos brings to InvestSMART a wealth of experience in relation to the Australian retail financial industry," the company said in a statement. "Effie is one of Australia's leading personal finance commentators with more than two decades of experience helping Australians make the most of their money."

Zahos will replace Kevin Moore, who will leave the board in December.
