Want to know what we’ll be talking about?  


 


In this episode of Super Insider, Andrew Fraser joins Anne Fuchs to share how Australian Retirement Trust is representing our members at the Economic Reform Roundtable in Canberra. 


 


As the only super fund with a dedicated seat at the table, we’re helping shape the national conversation of productivity, investment and retirement policy - turning big ideas into real-world benefits for Australians. From explaining what the Roundtable is and why it matters, to exploring how the discussions connect to the everyday realities of Australians, Andrew and Anne unpack the opportunities ahead. Along the way, Andrew also shares his personal perspective on representing members at such a high-level forum and the key questions he hopes to raise on their behalf. 


 


This episode provides a look into how Australian Retirement Trust advocates for better outcomes for both our members and all Australians - and how the decisions made in Canberra today could shape the Australia of tomorrow.
