Episode Synopsis
This episode of the Daily Financial Services News Wrap discusses the ongoing political rift over the Super Tax Cap Bill and its $3 million cap on superannuation tax policy. Financial advocates, senators, and politicians are at odds over the bill's amendments, and critiques are raised against Self-Managed Super Funds for their risky borrowing practices. Independent member, Allegra Spender, criticizes the bill for taxing unrealised gains without indexation. A crucial case from the Australian Financial Complaints Authority highlights the necessity for continuous insurance cover. Despite a rough April, superannuation funds aim for an 8% growth by year's end. Economists analyze the potential impacts of Australia's $28 billion federal budget expansion on borrowers, raising interest rate concerns amidst inflation control efforts. Despite uncertainties, there are predictions for modest rate reductions by 2026.n
