"The behemoth Australian fund IFM Investors will sink £10bn (A$19bn) into infrastructure and energy transition projects in Britain by 2027 as part of a new memorandum of understanding with the Sunak government.

The decision by IFM – which is owned by 17 Australian industry super funds – comes as a coalition of business and environmental groups calls on the Albanese government to supercharge tax and other financial incentives to ensure Australia can attract sufficient capital to drive the domestic transition to net zero emissions."

That's Your super fund. And Net(nut) zero has nil chance of success. Contact your super fund and see if you can bail on this.😡

Has anyone ever paid you for financial advice?

Yes. Next question?

Perhaps you want to mean will the injection of funds into UK net zero pay an equitable return and be relatively safe.

Does that sound like a safe investment to you? Perhaps they would be better betting on the Australian "net zero" concept.

'Ethical investment' is a scam.


Invest in oil, gas, electricity,  armaments and munitions, grain, nuclear and aviation technology.

Freemasons are taking Australia's unwanted money to distribute to wealthy Indian poms and their pommy subjects.

UK is going through devolution to a level below third-world and adoption of universal poverty. Only those with money regarded as disposable will invest in the UK.

Indian entrepreneurs and Indian Poms now appear to be in control of the UK. White Poms are starting to immigrate to India because they can't afford to live in the UK.

The Rupee will become more valuable than the GBP.

And yet the Indians are flooding into England and the English are keeping away from India.

Why?

I no longer give financial advice. I do however care about Super Funds sending money that will probably not generate good returns.

You really should have stopped at "I don't think". ::)

Perhaps you have an interest in the Super Funds sending your money offshore?

You care about climate change denial. That's why you post about it. You pretend to care about people's savings.

The real problem is perhaps the managers of the funds are receiving under-the-table inducements to direct the investments corruptly.

Observe the number of people who have been prosecuted for corrupt financial practices.

For huge investments placed corruptly financial managers could receive huge benefits.

Australia has a problem. There is too much money in the funds and they are struggling to get a reasonable return.

Lee were you this dishonest about your motivations back when you were trying to sell financial advice?

CO2 induced climate change has NOT been shown to be true. Models are NOT truth. It is allowed for scientists to say "I don't know", though they invariably don't. It is allowed for people to be sceptical, indeed it is a sign of a proper scientist. It is what overturned many previous prevailing theories. ::)

But I will give you another chance. Please expound on my " ignorant political views as financial advice".  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Super funds are not safe. They follow a path of diminishing returns relying only on the annual contributions to make it appear that Super grew over the year.

Many funds are failing. More will fail.

Bernie Madoff may be dead but his philosophies are not.

Quote:

Last year, five MySuper options failed. Of those, four have merged with other funds and are no longer offered. The last failed for a third consecutive year – with its provider making plans to stop offering the product. The Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA) says the test is intended to hold super trustees to account for underperformance through greater transparency and increased consequences. So far, all products that have experienced two or more test failures have closed or are in the process of closing, demonstrating that the strategy appears to be working. Persistently underperforming products are being removed from the market.

The answer is zero, isn't it? You only became a financial adviser and started caring about people's super when you found a link to climate change.
