RESOURCES
To optimise super, you must understand how it works and make informed decisions aligned with your goals and objectives.
The standard MySuper option offered by super providers is not an optimisation strategy. It is a default strategy and what is considered a passive management approach.
The SuperWiser portal helps you easily take control of your super and actively manage it towards a financially secure retirement.

Super Simpler
The simple truth is that life happens, and most people will make mistakes. What is essential is to learn from the experience and adjust your situation accordingly to improve your circumstances.
Super Direction
There is much confusion around superannuation. No one knows what to believe, yet everyone must make decisions. The government’s direction on super appears to continually change. Occasionally, there is a clear directional signal, but the reaction from the public (who own the asset) is minimal or absent.
Super Choices
Irrespective of your age, the quicker you realise the importance of your super and take appropriate action to optimise it, the more money you could have to spend in retirement.
Optimal super outcomes do not happen by accident, there are steps to take and informed decisions you must make. Choosing an appropriate super product is just one of them.
Uncomplicating Wealth Creation
Forward planning always begins with assessing your past. We all have aspects of life we know we manage well and some that we could manage better. Unless we regularly take stock of our current situation, review what we have done to get to this point and determine how we can improve our future outcomes, we stagnate and miss out on beneficial opportunities, and super is an area where this is especially true.
The Ups and Downs of Super
Depending upon your age, opportunities, and life experience, you might not yet realise the importance of your super relative to your financial future. Many individuals fail to ask the right questions regarding super, and even fewer consider how to make more super for their retirement.
Wasted Time, Wasted Money
Whether you are 20 or 60 years old, time progresses in the blink of an eye and arriving at your desired financial situation at the point of retirement does not happen by accident. The phrase, wasted time is wasted money, holds a lot of truth, especially with super.
Whose Super?
Ten years ago, the government introduced MySuper as a regulatory requirement, and interestingly neither the government nor the regulator has criticised or noted any inadequacies in the design of any platform’s MySuper investment default option since then.
Wise Up to Super
Super is a personal asset. To effectively manage super as a wealth creation strategy, you must determine what you want to achieve for yourself (also known as setting goals and objectives). You must also monitor your progress against your stated expectations and adjust your strategy regularly because the value of your super asset can rise or fall, depending on investment markets.
