About superannuation

Superannuation (super) is money - your money - set aside over your lifetime to provide for your retirement. It is the easiest investment you can make towards your future.

If you look after your super now, you will have more money to enjoy when you can access it. Retirement may seem a long way off, but the great thing about super is that it works for you while you're doing other things.

In most cases, if you have a job, your employer has to put money into your super account. This is called the super guarantee and it's the law.

If you've set up and are running your own small business, don't forget to invest in super for yourself.
