The Productivity Commission’s final report on its review of the superannuation system will be released on 10 January. It doubles down on the recommendations of an interim report that was released in May. Amongst other things, the PC recommends sweeping changes to the default super regime, including allowing new employees to choose from a list of the 10 best-performing funds. The PC estimates that its recommendations would increase the nation’s retirement savings by about $3.8bn a year. The final report of the financial services royal commission is expected to adopt some of the PC’s recommendations.
