Australia's super fund housing plan criticized as ineffective; equity release could unlock $1.3T in retiree wealth.
Australia’s housing crisis persists, with federal efforts to use super funds for affordable housing criticized as symbolic and ineffective.
Critics argue the approach misuses retirement savings and lacks scale, while alternatives like annuity-based reverse mortgages and equity release schemes are gaining traction.
These tools could unlock $1.3 trillion in retiree home equity, boost pensioner incomes by $14 billion annually, and save taxpayers $14.5 billion, with risks often overstated due to rising property values.
Super funds, as long-term investors, may be better suited than banks to manage such products, offering financial security and social benefits without displacing homebuyers.
