For a short while it looked like the leviathans of the Australian super industry were facing a new breed of challengers. Start-up youth-focused super funds such as Spaceship rattled the sector with ‘green’ style products, social media marketing, and clear support from a younger demographic. But the challengers have faded - they could not match the performance or services offered by big super. Will there ever be a successful super disruptor? How about a US$7 trillion non-profit global fund that’s just beginning to make some headway? Find out more in this week’s episode when we cover: the false dawn of super disruptors, the titan that could yet shake the market, the unlisted assets in big super, and doing your own super contributions.
