Alan Kohler, a veteran financial journalist, is retiring after three decades at the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). He has been the lead finance presenter for the 7pm news bulletin since 2002 and joined the ABC in 1995 as a business correspondent for The 7.30 Report. Kohler, now 74, worked previously at various publications including Fairfax Media titles like The Australian Financial Review, The Age, and The Sydney Morning Herald.
In an announcement to staff, he expressed his deep affection for the ABC, stating, “I find it very hard to imagine this wonderful place not being part of my life.” Kohler said that after a long career, it is time to spend more time with family, including six grandchildren. The Australian Treasurer Jim Chalmers paid tribute to Kohler’s contributions, noting his insightful analysis and saying his finance reports will be “really missed” across the country.
