The investment needs and required strategies for individuals in their 20’s or 30’s may be quite different to individuals   in their 50’s to 60’s. Broadly speaking, most Australians will fit into one of three categories in terms of their superannuation stage:

• Ages 20 to 45 – Accumulation Stage
• Ages 45 to 60: Pre-retirement Stage
• Ages 60 to life expectancy: Retirement and Post-Retirement Stage

Of course, there are some commonly held needs and objectives amongst these groups, which will often determine their attitude towards investing in superannuation.

For people in the accumulation stage, for instance, some of their focuses in life may include things such as entry into the workforce, marriage, buying their first home, starting a family and focusing on a career. As a result, the strategies that may be suitable for them in terms of their superannuation needs would need to complement their life stage.

In comparison, individuals in the pre-retirement stage), may be a little closer to paying off their first mortgage and may even be considering an investment property. They may perhaps have children that are a little older, they may be entering a second marriage, be further advanced in their career, or they may even be seeking a change in career. Once again the superannuation strategies that may suit this group would need to complement other parts of their lives and lifestyles.

Conversely, people who fall into the retirement and post retirement stage may be seeking advice on superannuation strategies that can assist in generating an income, as they are no longer in the work force, and let’s face it, retirement can mean anything from spending time with grandchildren, to regular overseas holidays! For this reason, the level of income required at retirement will vary greatly from one person to another.
