Industry Super Funds
Superannuation is an incredibly useful way of saving for your retirement – but how do you know if you’re in the right fund?
The general consensus is that it is in your best interests to work for as long as possible in order to maximise contributions to super and grow your account balance to as high a figure as possible. With people generally living much longer, individuals who are nearing age 60 are likely to be invested for another 20 or 30 years and so should retain a superannuation or pension balance.
