Two companies owing $12 million have been placed in liquidation, with investigators quiet on whether a financial advisor was behind an alleged ponzi scheme.

The judge noted an appearance "seems unlikely" as the court registrar called the name of two companies on Thursday.

And he was right. No-one from Financial Planning Ltd or Impact Enterprises Ltd attended the hearing before Associate Judge Dale Lester in the High Court of Dunedin.

Notably absent was Barry Kloogh, the Dunedin-based financial advisor who at least one investor alleges was behind a ponzi scheme.

The Dunedin City Council voted behind closed doors to increase its chief executive's salary by nearly $60,000, putting it closer in line with her male counterparts.

The move increased Dr Sue Bidrose's annual salary to $444,000 – a 14.7 per cent jump.

The increase, which was made public this week, was slammed by the Taxpayers' Union as a "stuff you" to local ratepayers.

But mayor Dave Cull said Bidrose had been earning below market value and her pay rise sent a strong message about addressing the gender pay gap.
