The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) has launched the first stage of Super Guru, a standalone website designed to enhance the financial literacy and superannuation knowledge of Australians.
The site was developed with the aid of the Victorian Government’s Collaborative Internet Innovation Fund to provide information on choice of funds, managing super, planning for retirement and self-managed super funds (SMSFs).
According to ASFA chief executive Pauline Vamos, Super Guru helps people “engage with their super more — either by asking questions of their funds, or of the people advising them with their self-managed fund”.
Super Guru was first incorporated into the ASFA website in 2005, but has now been transformed into a standalone site.
“This is an exciting next step in the development of this service. We felt there was a need to provide members of funds, those new to superannuation as well as those running their own SMSF or considering starting one, with key sources of independent information,” Vamos said.
