Helping investors traverse financial markets and build their wealth during the peaks and troughs is Janus Henderson Investors head of Australia Matt Gaden's game plan. He tells Karren Vergara why in this long game of investing, active management wins.
If super funds actively educated their members in staying healthier and productive longer, those that benefited would also boost their financial situation and face a more attractive longevity with a likely shorter period of dependency. They might also appreciate their ability to engage more productively with their younger family members and support achieving their financial independenc earlier. And they might feel their super funds are someone with more than just their financial interests at heart. Win-win-win?.
