MST Financial was pleased to launch the 2026 Directors & Executive Forum series in Sydney last night with a highly engaging event, hosted in partnership with MinterEllison.

The evening featured award-winning journalist Joe Aston as keynote speaker, who delivered a compelling and candid address on “Australian Business Leadership Under the Spotlight.” Drawing on his extensive experience covering corporate Australia, Joe shared sharp insights into governance standards, executive accountability, and the increasing scrutiny facing boards and senior leadership teams. His commentary touched on the evolving expectations of transparency, and the fine balance between performance, culture, and stakeholder trust.

He was joined for a fireside chat and panel discussion by Hasan Tevfik, Investment Strategist at MST Financial, and Saul Kavonic, Senior Energy Analyst at MST Financial. Together, they explored how leadership decisions, market dynamics, and sector-specific challenges, particularly within energy, are intersecting in today’s environment.

We thank our speakers, clients, and partners for contributing to an insightful and engaging evening, and extend our appreciation to MinterEllison for their wonderful hospitality and continued partnership.
