FEAR & GREED | Business News

Fear & Greed is proud to share an episode of our sister podcast - How Do They Afford That? - out every Wednesday, wherever you get your podcats.

There's been a real spike in EV ownership lately, and not just because of the soaring cost of petrol and diesel. There are also some significant tax incentives - and while the federal government is planning to wind these back over the next few years, for now they're still in place. Join Canna Campbell - a financial planner for 20 years - and Fear & Greed's Michael Thompson as they look at the costs and benefits of using a novated lease for a new electric vehicle.

Canna and Michael have written a book! Twelve Months to Financial Freedom will hit the shelves on September 1 - but you can preorder your copy right now.

Australians now have more than $4 trillion invested in superannuation, but many people have little idea where their retirement savings are actually invested. A new report from Mindful Investing argues there’s a growing gap between what Australians say they want from ethical investing and what many super funds actually hold in their portfolios.

Sean Aylmer speaks with Barry Coates, CEO of Mindful Investing, about why transparency remains such a major issue in superannuation, why index investing may be contributing to the problem, and whether younger Australians could eventually force change across the sector.
