Episode 2 of "That Super Show" is now live. This week, Neil and Sarah dive into:
Super fund marketing, sports sponsorships, and how transparency (or lack thereof) shapes member trust.
The fine balance between innovation and regulation, especially as APRA tightens its focus on industry governance and spending.
The challenges of measuring the true value of brand advertising and muse about unconventional investments - from vintage cars to crypto - questioning where super funds should draw the line.
Tune in for sharp insights, candid stories, and thought-provoking questions about where Australia’s retirement system is headed, and how members, regulators and innovators can all win.
