It's no secret that women on average have a lower superannuation balance than men. This can be for many reasons. So when we came across FairVine Super, we knew we needed to get them on the show. FairVine is a superannuation fund designed for women.

We sat down with Rachel Hamlen, who is the Head Of Customer Experience at FairVine Super, to help us unpack some of the reasons why 1 in 3 women retire with no superannuation at all. We also take the opportunity to ask some broader questions about superannuation that impact everybody. We thoroughly enjoyed this interview, and want to thank Rachel for sharing her personal stories with our audience.

In this episode, you will learn:

A bit about Rachel's background and how she came to be working in superannuation
What is wrong with the current superannuation system, particularly for women
What is the gap between men and women at retirement
How millennials should think about super
What FairVine is and their mission
Some of the investment strategies FairVine have on offer
How FairVine is different to other super funds
