Investing for the future
Paul reminds us that it’s important to remember that super is a long-term investment and returns will fluctuate from time to time.
‘We expect to see continued ups and downs as markets react to local and global events, so as we move into 2024, it’s a good time for members to consider the level of risk they are willing to tolerate and assess if their investment plan is right for where they are on their retirement journey.’
