All super funds pay ‘dividends’
Your latest podcast suggests retail funds pay ‘dividends’ or profits to their shareholders, yet industry funds do not. If you follow the money then you’ll see it isn’t that simple. Under legislation no super fund can operate for profit. The underlying service providers can however operate for profit. Most industry funds outsource services like Administration, Investments, Insurance, Accounting, Legal, IT etc to other companies. Many of these are listed on the ASX, who pay dividends to shareholders. The difference is that many Retail funds in the past opted to do their own administration, investments and insurance. That isn’t the case today as most super funds outsource most services. Therefore there isn’t really much difference re the direction of profits. The question perhaps to ask is why the fund exists.

Solana & others also use tiny amounts of energy. Really poorly researched episode & based...Read full review »
