Welcome to the latest episode of On the Couch, the podcast series where we chat with brokers, CEOs, and fund managers to give you valuable insights into the investing world.

In this episode, Henry Jennings is joined by Marnie Reid, CEO of Issuer Services for Australia and New Zealand at Computershare. Marnie is responsible for the leadership, growth, and day-to-day management of the Issuer Services business across both countries.

Before joining Computershare in 2022, Marnie had been a client of the business for 30 years through her roles at AMP Limited and NRMA (now IAG). At AMP, she oversaw governance of the retail register as Head of Shareholder Services, working closely with Investor Relations and Corporate Communications teams.

In 2021, Marnie was made a Fellow of the Australasian Investor Relations Association (AIRA) in recognition of her work advocating for best practice and development programs in retail investor relations.

In this episode, they discuss:

• The rise of scams and how to spot them
• What Computershare is doing to keep investor data and shareholdings safe
• Practical steps investors can take to help prevent fraud
• Important considerations around estate planning
