Hi everyone,
In this week’s Smart Investing, Senior Personal Finance writer Tony Kaye discusses why retiring from work shouldn’t equate to retiring from managing your investment portfolio.
We also recognise the many risks that retirees face in retirement, and offer some strategies that may help mitigate them.
Lastly, as we celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Australian ETF industry this month, we go back to basics and revisit the fundamentals of ETFs to understand why they have become such a popular investment product.
Regards, | | 
Robin Bowerman
Head of Corporate Affairs
