Helping you with SuperAdvice

With $2.1 trillion in aggregate investment capital between them, Australia's biggest group of shareholders have enough funds to buy, outright, the top 200 companies listed on the Australian Securities Exchange and still have around $500 billion left over in change.

That's all our major and regional banks, mining companies, telcos, retailers, and a host of other influential enterprises that effectively make our economy tick.

Those funds, of course, are held by millions of Australians through more than 14 million superannuation and pension accounts, including some 570,000 self-managed super funds managing more than $600 billion in assets.

But, in reality, when it comes to building and managing retirement money, most Australians need help.

Introducing SuperAdvice

That's why Eureka Report has just launched a new section of the website called SuperAdvice.

In there, you'll find comprehensive coverage of all the key issues you need to be aware of in relation to Superannuation, Retirement and Tax, and a new SMSF Compliance section containing articles to guide you if you do manage your own fund.

You will notice there is now also a monthly noticeboard on the right-hand side of each page in SuperAdvice, which has key deadlines to note and lists everything you need to know and do so your SMSF remains compliant throughout the year.

Our team of licensed financial advisors, each with many years of experience, will continue to provide you with expert information and general tips to help you build and manage your assets over time. This content is contained in the area titled Investment Strategy.

This week, you may have read these articles in Eureka Report:

• A lost super opportunity for SMSFs
• Time to get into some super rebalancing
• In defence of SMSF borrowing restrictions
• We also published a video: The new super rules explained

An increasingly complex system

Australia's superannuation and retirement landscape is both complex and seemingly ever-changing.

So managing your superannuation money properly, in the accumulation and pension phases, is imperative in ensuring you have enough funds to live comfortably in retirement.

We will be adding more and more content to SuperAdvice over time, including articles and videos, so you're never out of the loop when it comes to superannuation, retirement, wealth accumulation and management in general.

In case you've missed it

The team and I have put together an essential super guide to make sure you are ready for the impending super rules. 'Your Super in 2017' covers every super reform to be introduced in 2017 and how best to prepare for what's to come. If you haven't read the report, here it is.
