  • Is there a better option than an SMSF?
    SMSFs (Self-Managed Super Funds) are increasing in popularity. SMSFs provide a lot of great features. They allow investors to access the investments they want, and in the proportion they’d like to. They allow a level of customisation to invest in asset classes that aren’t available through traditional superfunds. The popularity of SMSFs with investors – particularly investors with high balances – has caused the industry to innovate to provide another option. In this episode, Mark and Shani discuss Direct Investment options that may offer a happy middle ground for investors who want control of their portfolio, but not the headache of portfolio administration.

Many members of the Morningstar community have shared that the reliable passive income provides them peace of mind. He explores how dividends can bring this for investors, but also improve living standards and provide retirement certainty by reducing longevity and sequence of returns risk. In the next instalment of Bookworm, Joseph turns to the writing of value investing legend Marty Whitman for insight. Joseph highlights Whitman's unusually consistent approach to stock selection over the decades, and looks at how ignoring short-term performance versus benchmarks could unlock a long-term investing edge. In this week's edition of Future Focus, Shani looks at new research from Vanguard regarding how you can improve your retirement income by up to 50%. Many retirees focus on overspending in retirement, but there is a real risk of underspending. Shani runs through the factors that investors need to consider to find the right balance between quality of life and longevity of retirement savings.To submit any questions or feedback, please email [email protected] or leave us a voicemail to feature on the podcast here.Audio Producer and mixer: William Ton.
