A new Rainmaker Information study for Industry Super Australia (ISA) shows that retail superannuation funds owned by the major banks have been tardy in moving customers into new low-fee default products. Under the MySuper regulations the switch must occur by mid-2017, but the retail funds have been only half as quick to comply as their rival industry super funds. ISA CEO David Whitely notes this is generating additional fee income for the banks. The submission by his body to the Australian Government’s financial system review also argues that banks should be banned from bundling banking and super products
