In this episode, Paige Estritori discusses RACQ Insurance's concern that 78% of renters, particularly ages 18-34, in Queensland are risking their financial stability because they lack contents insurance. Many renters undervalue their belongings, see insurance as an unnecessary expense, or are unaware of insurance options. The aim is to increase awareness to prevent financial loss due to natural disasters. In Melbourne, the Victorian Building Authority fined Aycon Constructions and its director, Seyit Ayranci, $250,000 for using counterfeit insurance certificates. Despite a slight market decline, ASX200 and All Ordinaries saw banking sector mixed results, and property stocks impacted by possible rate hikes. Despite the rise in unemployment to 4.1%, 50,000 new jobs were created. Meanwhile, despite scrutiny facing CFMEU, superannuation fund Cbus continues to grow, showing the effectiveness of diverse union and specialist influences.
