Editor's Notes
- Do you know how much money you have in your super? Chances are that you have several super accounts – most Australians do. In fact, on average they have their money in three different funds. You might very well have even more than three – many of you will have moved jobs over the years. You might have made a career shift in your late 20s, after going back to school part time. And what about when you served beer at the pub down the road while you were at uni (or were in-between jobs)? You may have no idea where some of your money sits, because you have moved a few times since. While you know it’s not much, it’s likely that fees have been eating into some of your accounts. You can get a lot more value from your super by getting it all consolidated into one account. Most importantly, that way you can easily keep track of your super. With multiple accounts, do you have a clue how your super is doing? Having your money in one place gives you everything you need to know at a glance. You may save on fees and insurance premiums Remember that your super can stay in one fund no matter where you work! On a related note: There is a reported $10+ billion of lost super money sitting at the ATO. Have you ever changed your name, address or job? Looking around the room, I think most of you have. You can check to see whether you have lost super by accessing the ATO’s SuperSeeker tool. You can access it either directly or through Equipsuper’s website.
- Assumptions – 35 years old, 50k balance FUND A is BT for Life FUND B is Australian Super
- “SalSac” / how much is enough For many of you, your super is likely going to be your main income during retirement. Don’t bank on getting the age pension, which is a safety net for those that need it most. Many older workers retiring now are finding that they haven’t saved enough to be self-reliant in retirement. We don’t want you to fall into that trap. 9% super might not be enough to maintain a comfortable lifestyle. We’d need a crystal ball to know how long we will live. You might have heard that the government is gradually ramping up mandatory contributions to 12% by 1/7/2019. Some industry pundits have put the required number closer to 15%, which they believe is more appropriate to achieve a comfortable lifestyle once you are ready to quit the workforce. Your extra contributions are tax efficient. You can redirect some of your before-tax salary into your superannuation account. The government calls this salary sacrificing. Not only do the extra payments boost your super, but this option also provides you with a tax saving. This starts to be attractive for people making more than $37,000, where you pay a marginal tax of 32.5%, rather than the 15% you pay for any extra super contributions you make (up to $25k).
- Let’s take a peek at what the markets have provided over the last decade. This table summarises returns of some of the main asset classes Australians typically have invested via their super account – Australian and international shares, Australian and international bonds, property, and cash. I am only showing you the Top 3 for each of the last ten years. Both Australian property and Australian shares show up in the Top 3 frequently. Property, by the way, is mostly comprised of commercial and industrial holdings. Besides shares and property, other asset classes make a showing in this list, too. Look at International Bonds, which has had a strong running over the past few years. You may not know this, but most of Equip’s Diversified investment options hold international bonds, as part of our allocation to diversified fixed income. So who would have chosen that? We all love to pick winners. However, it’s difficult to do that on a consistent basis, as investment markets fluctuate constantly, and sometimes wildly! For most of you, your super is the longest-running investment portfolio you will ever own. Holding a diversified portfolio is generally better than trying to time the market. Short-term performance should not be your guide – be mindful that chopping and changing based on the latest news can be tricky. It makes much more sense to assess performance over the long term – five to seven years at minimum, above all when you look at growth assets such as shares or property, which are more volatile than others, but tend to outperform over the long run.
- Super is not just about investing, though. Many super funds have insurance options to provide financial security for you and your family, at very competitive rates. Typically, in superannuation death and total and permanent disability are combined into one offering. To protect yourself from short-term disability or illness, you can opt for salary continuance insurance, providing you with income for a duration of up to two years. Insurance is particularly important if you have either debt or dependants. What would happen if you died, or if you became too sick to work? Did you know that every year, around 236,000 working age parents suffer a serious illness or injury? More than 17,000 will be forced to stop working permanently or for an extended period of time. Now is a good time to check what insurance cover you have. In order to see whether it’s appropriate, you should add up your assets and liabilities, and consider whether your cover is adequate to look after you and your dependants if something happened to you. If in doubt, get some advice what is appropriate for you. And since we’re on the topic, you need to nominate your beneficiaries. This is important for both insurance and super payouts. It provides the superfund with guidance in terms of which dependants will receive your money. You can also make a binding death benefit nomination, which will oblige the fund to pay out to the eligible people you have nominated.
- See? Super is not all that complicated. You just need to activate your money and make it work for you. To summarize, here are a few big ideas to take home with.
