This episode of the Weekly Superannuation News Wrap explores key updates in the Australian superannuation industry. Host Paige Estritori introduces the hike in the national superannuation guarantee from 9.5% to 12%, set to begin on July 1st.

The episode also warns about new scams that have cost Australians around 12 million dollars and reiterates the Australian Taxation Office's safeguards against such threats.
