It's disappointing that the focus of APRA (from this interview anyway) seems to be on the development and regulation of products. A major opportunity is available from better education of super members (and their largely anonymous partners) about their anticipated greater longevity and how they can respond positively to potentially better outcomes. This should begin well before 'retirement'. Increasing evidence suggests our framing of our later life is significantly out of date with likely reality, increasing the risk of poor financial and other decisions, and compounding the growth in the health and aged care costs for the person and the community.
