How to determine asset allocation

Asset allocation is the process of dividing funds between different asset classes including cash, bonds, property and shares. This takes place as spreading resources across different asset classes can help diversify the portfolio’s holdings, which is an important way to manage risk.

The superannuation changes from 1 July

The super changes on the way from the start of the 2024-25 financial year.

A number of superannuation changes will come into effect from 1 July 2024 that are designed to help working Australians get more money into the retirement savings system.

If fully utilised, the changes potentially allow all super fund members, including those with a self managed super fund (SMSF), to add tens of thousands of dollars extra into their account from the start of the 2024-25 financial year.

New ACCC figures show sharp rise in older people being fleeced in social media scams.

In short:
Australians lost a total of $477 million to scams last year, according to new ACCC figures.

The Scamwatch report also showed year-on-year losses dropping by $92 million, especially for investment scams.

What's next? The government has plans to introduce mandatory codes for banks, telcos and social media companies which it says will impose tough new standards.

Want to earn more and keep your Age Pension?

Many people continue, or even start, working once they’ve reached Age Pension age. This may be for social reasons, personal fulfilment or to maintain their standard of living. With the higher cost of living at the moment, even more pensioners are taking up work.

How much super should you have at your age?

Your super balance will most likely play a big part in how comfortably you live in retirement. But depending on how far off retirement is for you, it might be difficult to gauge whether your super is on track, or if you might need a bit more saved up to live the lifestyle you want after you finish working.

In fact, almost half of working Australians don’t know how much they will need to have saved for retirement, according to the AMP 2022 Financial Wellness report1.
