What are the super strategies?
The strategies range from how to manage your superannuation and your mortgage to what to do if you're selling your business to fund your retirement. Here are some examples:
Supercharge your super without the sacrifice
If you're over 55 and have some super already, Westpac Retirement Specialists could help you boost your super savings significantly without cutting back on your lifestyle.
Cut your hours, not your income
If you're 55 or over, the transition to retirement rules may enable you to reduce your working hours and use your super to supplement your income.
Discover the newly enhanced power of salary sacrifice
New rules that make super benefits tax-free after 60 could now make super one of the most profitable and tax-effective strategies for higher earners –— even more so than other popular strategies.
Get the government to help pay for your insurance through super
Buying life insurance through your super fund means you may be able to take advantage of the government co-contributions rule to cover your insurance premiums.
