In this podcast, Paige Estritori highlights key points in Australia's financial landscape. The Australian ETF market is growing, expected to hit $300 billion AUM by year-end. Investors are shifting from high-cost active funds to affordable, diverse ETFs. With the fiscal year-end looming, superannuation contributors, particularly high earners, should time their contributions to qualify for current year tax credits. Couples can potentially benefit from spouse contribution splitting. In Victoria, the net public debt may reach $194 billion by FY 2028-29, suggesting a need for operational efficiency and strategic workforce management. Lastly, transparency issues arise in the insurance sector after a life insurance provider is reprimanded for unclear communication surrounding policy rejection letters.n
