Australian superannuation fund Aware Super opened its first overseas office in London last year and has wasted little time deploying capital. The fund, which manages A$170 billion ($110 billion; €105 billion) on behalf of predominantly nurses and teachers in Australia, quickly set on a plan to invest £5 billion ($6.3 billion; €6 billion) in the UK. It is almost halfway through that plan and most recently invested $370 million to acquire a stake in renewable energy group Octopus Energy. In this episode, senior editor Adam Le sits down with Damien Webb, deputy chief investment officer and head of international, to discuss what the superfund looks for when it backs emerging managers (spoiler alert: it's more than just track record). Webb also discusses how the fund invests in both funds and directs, its outlook on UK investments and how it plans to deploy more capital into secondaries.

Progress in recruiting more diverse people into investment management- particularly women – has been made in recent years, mainly in mid-level roles, but more work is needed. Beattie has noted that the twin trends of continued consolidation of superannuation fund and the growing internal investment teams at those funds presents an opportunity for the superannuation fund industry to collectively break down structural barriers to gender parity in the industry.

Liza McDonald is head of Responsible Investment at Aware Super, one of Australia's largest super funds, which means she and her team are not only responsible for the retirement savings of millions of Australians, but they also have shareholdings in companies all over the world, which gives them an opportunity to engage, and maybe even influence these companies to make positive change. Aware Super is not only leading in being one of the largest funds in Australia, it's also leading in terms of its approach to sustainability. They committed to net-zero last year, they've divested from coal, and they're expanding their impact investment footprint. I spoke to Liza about all these topics and more. She was generous in helping us understand her investment and analysis approach, as well as her philosophical view of using investment capital to drive change. We also dug into how Aware Super works with outside fund managers. We discussed the criteria they look for in terms of ESG and sustainability, and their plans to bring more of it in-house. And, a small update on some of the numbers mentioned in the conversation. When we discuss Aware's Impact investment portfolio the current status is 14 assets, valued at $2.9 billion. I really enjoyed this one: I hope it offers insights to both the retail crowd, who are looking for a super fund that's aligned with their values, as well as institutional investors who are keen to understand what Aware Super looks for in their ESG mandates.

They are specialists in complex business and set out to understand, decode and define – to simplify without diluting. Clients have included NAB, MLC, Aware Super, Ignition Advice, PEXA and AGL. Their unique value proposition to clients is “We make the complex beautiful”. In this episode of The FinTech Report Podcast, Kimberley discusses the importance of foundational strategy to FinTechs when starting out and scaling up, and how Six Black Pens approaches foundational and other communications strategies through the lens of Behavioural Economics. Among the topics covered, Kimberley explains: ·       Why FinTechs, when they begin to scale up, need to change their communications strategy to effectively target a consumer and not an investor audience.  ·       That Six Black Pens considers its best work to be its most effective work – that is, work that delivers on a business goal for the client but at the same time delivers value to the client's customers. ·       Why Behavioural Economics should be the foundation for any marketing, advertising or communication with a customer.  ·       How System 1 (fast, automatic) and System 2 (slow, considered) thinking drive consumer behaviour and how understanding customers' unconscious biases leads to more effective communications. ·       How SBP expertise in Behavioural Economics – and a strategy based on 5 key behavioural nudges – helped Australians take charge of their superannuation. ·       Why it's vital to select the best channel for your audience's level of digital comfort – and why that channel must be optimised for its specific audience. ·       That every communications strategy must have hard metrics baked into it to measure success against. ·       The importance to FinTechs of thinking about foundational strategy right from the beginning – that is, the building blocks of your identity, your message, your communication, your customer value proposition and your audience segmentation. ·       Why FinTechs must get the customer onboarding experience right – and the building blocks needed to achieve this. ·       What FinTechs and traditional banks can learn from one another and why this new ecosystem is better for customers and Australia. If you'd like to be taken through a sector specific insights presentation focusing on the value of foundational strategy for FinTechs you can contact Helen via email: helen 'at' sixblackpens 'dot' com  Our thanks to Australian FinTech News and Envestnet Yodlee for their support of The FinTech Report Podcast.

Financial literacy is a term that excites some, but many people are hard-pressed to get excited about it, despite its importance in how we all view, manage and maximize our money, from our first pocket money as a kid to making retirement savings last these days for up to 30 years after we no longer earn a wage. My guest Julia Newbould is Managing Editor of Money magazine, Australia's most-read personal finance magazine. In this role, she oversees all content for the magazine, website, and podcast.  In June she started the Friends with Money podcast. Prior to that, she had been Editor at Large for the magazine, where she started as the public face of the publication through podcasts, has led webcasts for corporates such as Westpac and Aware Super, as well as TV and radio segments. Through her various positions in financial media, it has been her overarching goal to demystify finance for more people and allow those who want to do more with their money to have greater opportunities to access the best information. Julia has spent the majority of her career in media, combining her academic background in economics and practical experience in journalism, she has contributed and led editorial and content teams for financial services publications and Top 20 ASX listed companies for the past 20 years. Since 2000, she has worked extensively with financial planners where she has gained much knowledge about personal finance and an understanding of the role professionals can play in helping people reach their personal and financial goals. In 2013, driven by a desire to see greater inroads in financial independence for women, Julia established and managed the Stella Network, an initiative supported by BT Financial Group to support women in financial planning with the belief financial planners should be more like the people they hope to serve. Julia is an Advisory Board Member for 1Million Women and a Member of the University of Sydney Alumni Council. From 2016 to 2018, Julia served as Treasurer for Women in Theatre and Screen (WITS) and was a Women of Westpac – Global Trends Committee member. In March 2020, her first book The Joy of Money was published. The book was written to help women become more confident around money and understand how to structure theirs better to reach life's goals. Julia Newbould has a passion for writing, equality, theatre, 70s music, and classic film and in her spare time, when not locked down, she attends red carpet events, reads voraciously, acts as a mentor for women in business, and has been known to write reviews under a pseudonym or two. In the podcast hear from Julia on: Financial literacy is a term many of us never knew when we started work or had to make decisions about money we have earned – what is it and why does it matter? What makes financial literacy work best? Is it a school subject we miss out on or is there an ongoing way we can become better at our own financial understanding all the way from first job to retirement and beyond? The GFC and the 2018 Banking Royal Commission showed many people that trusting the so-called “smartest people in the room” with our money is not always wise. What role do advisors play and what do we as consumers need to understand as well? Are women needing different financial literacy supports or is it not a gender-led issue? Explain and give some ideas on what financial literacy looks like for us? Take away: What is your final takeaway message for us on The Politics of Financial Literacy?
