Accelerating Australia’s economic recovery
A Financial Services Council’s (FSC’s) report released early this month offers new ideas and solutions to help Australia’s long-term economic recovery.
The report’s key proposal is to introduce a new investment vehicle to promote a wider range of investment into infrastructure. Called Australian Superannuation and Infrastructure Investment Vehicles (ASIIVs), the new structures would help people manage their own financial challenges.
Currently, most infrastructure investment by super funds is from the larger institutional funds. ASIIVs would open up this investment to a broader range of super funds, including self-managed superannuation funds (SMSFs).
FSC CEO Sally Loane said the initiative would utilise the nation’s $2.7 trillion pool of retirement savings. “The new ASIIVs will unlock a large chunk of funds – around $1.7 trillion in choice and self-managed superannuation funds – for infrastructure projects from investors who today have limited access to them,” Ms Loane said.
