Market Growth Factors

Mandatory employer contributions, under the Australian Superannuation Guarantee, compel employers to contribute a fixed percentage of employee salaries into superannuation funds. This system ensures a steady inflow of funds, significantly boosting market growth. For example, contribution rates rose from 11% to 11.5% in July 2024 and are scheduled to reach 12% by July 2025. These mandatory contributions serve as a reliable foundation for retirement savings accumulation and market expansion, offering financial stability for workers and fund managers alike.

Australia's aging population also acts as a major driver of the superannuation market. The number of Australians aged over 85 is expected to double by 2042, surpassing 1 million people and representing about 3% of the population. Similarly, the 65+ age bracket is predicted to nearly double to between 6.4 and 6.7 million. This demographic trend escalates the demand for retirement planning and adequate savings, pushing individuals to optimize their superannuation investments and driving market activity and value growth.

Government policies and tax incentives significantly shape the market's growth trajectory. Concessional tax rates on contributions and earnings, government co-contributions for lower-income earners, and incentives for voluntary contributions encourage maximization of superannuation savings. In March 2024, a new government scheme added 12% superannuation contributions on government-funded parental leave to address the retirement savings gap between genders. Proposed adjustments to super rates for supported employment workers also reflect this dynamic environment, stimulating higher contributions and long-term investment growth.
