A discussion paper released by[1] the government seeks community and industry views on how the superannuation system can best provide the security and income Australians need as they live longer and healthier lives in retirement.

Craig Keary, CEO of Selfwealth, Australia’s largest independent investment platform, noted the timeliness of the initiative.

“We’re at a point in time where Australians achieving their wealth creation goals — which leads to them living their best retirement life — is of critical importance.

“The upcoming consultation suggested by Treasurer Jim Chalmers and Financial Services Minister Stephen Jones is well-timed given rising cost of living pressures, along with longer life expectations and a heightened demand for retirement solutions. It’s incumbent upon all in the financial services community to work together with government and industry stakeholders to ensure that customers have access to the best tools, products, and guidance to enable them to lead their best retirement life.

“At Selfwealth we have always provided our customers with the tools and insights to expedite these goals, and their pursuit of them is why we facilitate access to markets and the means to navigate them.”
