The Your Future, Your Super bill has now been passed in the Senate and will come into force on 1 July, 2021.
The bill was passed with amendments today and would include a performance test of super funds to ensure members were not stuck in underperforming funds.
Members would also be ‘stapled’ to a superannuation fund where one fund would stick with them for the duration of their working life which would prevent the creation of employees having multiple accounts.
Finally, there would be increased accountability of how superannuation funds used their members’ money.
SuperRatings has shared the median estimated return for balanced superannuation funds for the calendar year 2024.
The $90 billion fund delivered double-digit returns in its flagship Growth option last year and remains optimistic for 2025.
A strategic overweight to US and global equities along with an increased exposure to private debt and diversified credit has seen AMP deliver a return of more than 15 per cent for its three largest Lifestage cohorts in 2024.
Super funds had a “tremendous month” in November, according to new data.
