About this Report
Roy Morgan's Superannuation Choice reports have monitored the superannuation market since the introduction of Super Choice in July 2005. The current Superannuation and Wealth Management in Australia Report is the fourteenth in the series expanding on the original theme by putting superannuation in a more holistic context. It continues the coverage of the superannuation market into the period ended June 2011.
Superannuation is understood and analysed in the context of all the other financial products, assets and debt that make up the true financial position of Australian households. Furthermore, the issue of financial advice is examined.
In addition to the regular features such as the analysis of the superannuation and managed funds switching behaviour, this Report ranks the top 16 superannuation fund managers in Australia. Critical issues such as potential financial planner bias, perception of independence and advice have also been dealt with in considerable detail.
This edition includes a special investigation of women and superannuation looking particularly at the differences between men and women regarding balances, sources of retirement income and adequacy of balances for retirement.
