28 Apr Why super and growth assets like shares have to be seen as long-term investments

- As we’ve seen recently growth assets like shares have periods of bad short-term performance versus bonds & cash. But they provide superior long-term returns which is essential to grow retirement savings. It makes sense for superannuation to have a high exposure to them.
- The best approach is to simply recognise that super and investing in shares is a long-term investment.
