In this episode of Think: Business Futures, we’ll be diving into just one area of personal finance–superannuation.

What is super? Why is a percentage of your potential income syphoned off into a super account I can’t touch for decades, and what does that mean for your future? And, if you’re a woman, why are you retiring with–on average–almost 25% less super than men?

To discuss these and other issues related to the finance gender gap, we’re joined by Professor Kathy Walsh, Associate Dean (Research and Innovation) and Professor in Finance at the UTS Business School and Dr Danny Yeung, Lecturer in Finance Discipline at the UTS Business School.
