COOPER REVIEW
The cooper review’s FINAL REPORT was released by the Government on 5 July and included 177 recommendations across 10 broad categories. The cooper review recommends sweeping structural changes, the review makes significant changes to retirees with an income stream that addresses investment, inflation and longevity risks – as part of the recommended MySuper options.
The review will keep the superannuation industry busy with two major proposals called SuperStream and MySuper, which Treasury estimates will reduce fees for the average member by 40% in the long run, lifting their final account balance at retirement by about 7%.
Cooper Review’s recommendations
A number of the cooper Review’s recommendations relate to trustee and investment governance and management , including a new statutory office of ‘trustee director’ and greater use of non-associated directors. There will be an increased focus on risk management, including liquidity management and the use of operational risk reserves.
