Article Abstract:

An independent survey of 1200 people found that nearly 20 percent who read their superannuation statements did not understand them and 10 percent had not read their statement. The Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) and the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) are pushing for short, simple documents that would include information about the nature of the super product, the risks involved, fees and charges and the products' investment performance.
