Superannuation consultancy JANA has announced it has just broken the 100-headcount milestone, with the company supporting year-on-year growth with a 16 per cent increase in staff.

JANA’s purpose is to deliver sustained investment outperformance for our clients and their beneficiaries. We recognise the growing challenges that you face as asset owners and fiduciaries including a lower return outlook and increasing regulatory complexities. I’d like to take this opportunity to update you with some of the changes that we have made and what we hope they will mean to you as our clients.
