Super news

Superannuation has become a regular part of the news coverage in recent years. This can be beneficial in that it can raise general awareness about super and remind many Australians that they should check in on their own super, and not forget to properly plan for their retirement.

Often though news about super can be negative, when there are significant changes to the rules that forces people to learn the new rules and assess the implications for their existing retirement plans. A lot of angst and uncertainty can also be created when changes are only mooted – for example at election or budget time.

Whatever the big issues are about super, SuperGuide will always cover them from an independent perspective, telling it like it is and never representing any particular political party or industry organisation. SuperGuide has only ever represented the best interests of everyday Australians to help you better plan for your retirement.
