Former FAI and HIH director Rodney Adler will appear again at the HIH Royal Commission as the inquisitors turn their attention on the directors of the collapsed insurer. Mr Adler, who last appeared to answer questions mainly related to FAI and its operations, is listed to appear within the next couple of weeks. This phase of the inquiry is scheduled to end on September 27.

Other witnesses will include the co-founder of HIH and a major player at the London end of the HIH empire, Michael Payne, and HIH Chairman Geoffrey Cohen.
