Effie Zahos joins Channel 9 as Money Editor – The 9Network is excited to announce that esteemed financial commentator and author Effie Zahos will join the network in a full-time capacity as 9News Money Editor from October 7.
Effie, who is currently a regular contributor to the Today show, will bring her extensive knowledge and talent for breaking down complex financial issues in a way that’s easy to understand for all Australians. In her new role, Effie will work across 9News, A Current Affair, Today, and Today Extra, delivering critical financial insights that directly impact Australian households and families.
Effie will also collaborate closely with 9News Finance Editor Chris Kohler. While Chris provides expert analysis on the broader world of finance and property, Effie will hone in on what these developments mean for the everyday consumer – covering topics from budgeting and saving to how changes in interest rates, superannuation, and housing prices affect household finances.
Effie Zahos said of her new role:
“I’m thrilled to be joining the 9Network full-time as 9News Money Editor. Finance doesn’t have to be complicated, and I’m passionate about helping everyday Aussies understand how changes in the economy impact them. With the cost of living and interest rates at the top of everyone’s minds, there’s never been a more important time to break down what it all means for families and households.”
Chris Kohler, 9News Finance Editor, welcomed Effie’s appointment:
“Effie is a powerhouse when it comes to personal finance, and I’m looking forward to working with her. Together, we’ll be able to cover every aspect of finance – from big-picture economic shifts to the everyday financial decisions Australians face. With Effie on board, we’re providing viewers with an even broader scope of expert financial analysis.”
Fiona Dear, Nine’s Director of News & Current Affairs, praised Effie’s unique approach:
“Effie has an extraordinary ability to simplify even the most complex financial topics, and we’re delighted to welcome her to the team full-time. With Effie and Chris working together, the 9Network will offer the most comprehensive and accessible finance reporting in the country, giving viewers everything they need to stay informed, whether it’s on a national level or in their own home budgets.”
With two of Australia’s leading financial experts on the team, the 9Network continues its commitment to delivering top-tier, trusted financial news and analysis. Effie and Chris will provide in-depth coverage of property markets, shares, superannuation, interest rates, and more – ensuring Australians have the knowledge to make informed financial decisions.
