Breaking Politics: A Super Future

Compulsory superannuation is approaching its 30th birthday.
While the Super Guarantee rate has increased over time, much more has changed about Australian society – presenting new challenges to life after work.
A special six-part Breaking Politics ‘Break Out’ podcast series is putting Super through its paces, examining where it’s working, where it’s failing and a range of potential reforms.
Hosted by Cam Reddin, Breaking Politics – A Super Future provides expert commentary and analysis of the great Australian super debate.

Episode 3: Super School (coming April 16)
Young Australians will be living and working longer than their parents, while needing more money in retirement. So how is super preparing them for a far-off life after work? Plus, the fallout from the government’s Early Access scheme.
