David Kiely, a stockbroker with Macquarie Private Wealth, became an overnight star – and landed himself in hot water – after being filmed looking at revealing pictures of supermodel Miranda Kerr live on television.

The MacBank client investment manager will meet with the bank’s executives this week to determine his future after the video of him perusing Ms Kerr’s assets in the background of a live cross to the Seven Network went viral on YouTube, reports The Australian.

The Macquarie Private Wealth employee clicked up the images of Australian model Miranda Kerr, unaware a colleague nearby was doing a live television interview about the Australian economy.

Australia’s Seven Network broadcast the news item on Tuesday, with the photographs clearly showing on a computer screen in the background.

The incident has become a global internet hit with over 200,000 views and a 5-star rating on YouTube. It was reported widely in Australia’s newspapers today.

Macquarie Bank, known locally as the “millionaire’s factory’, said it was taking the matter seriously.

“Macquarie has strict policies in place surrounding the use of technology and the issue arising from today’s live cross on Seven News is being dealt with internally,” the bank told local media.

At one stage, the man turns and looks directly at the television camera and realises his actions have been caught on camera.
