RBA warns retirement wave will test Australian pension funds
(Oct 26): Australia’s central bank has warned the nation’s A$4.8 trillion (US$3.4 trillion or RM13.8 trillion) pension industry is facing a fresh set of challenges as millions of people enter retirement over the next decade and funds face cash outflows as people draw down their savings.
The so-called superannuation sector has become a large owner of domestic assets and has historically been a “countercyclical stabilising force”, in times of market stress such as the Covid-19 pandemic, Reserve Bank of Australia Assistant Governor Brad Jones told the AFR Super and Wealth Summit in Melbourne on Monday.
Jones said weekly net inflows of A$1 billion-A$2 billion have historically helped the sector absorb stress. He warned that cushion may become less dependable over time as more funds move into net cash-outflow positions as more people retire and draw on their savings. About 2.5 million people are expected to retire over the next decade.
