#30. Cohosts Neil Benson and Sarah Penn chat with Kerry Vogel, Head of Insurance Claims, Performance and Delivery at CBUS Super.

Today's conversation focuses on how CBUS Super responded to major failings in handling death claims by moving beyond surface fixes and fundamentally redesigning the process.

The central argument: Australian super funds create unnecessary complexity and distress for grieving families by relying on outdated, paperwork-heavy systems, and CBUS has proven it’s possible (and necessary) to remove those frictions even within tight regulatory constraints.

A key theme that emerged was how stripping away non-binding and lapsing nomination options, and instead prioritizing a single, digital-first, non-lapsing binding nomination, can mean faster, simpler outcomes, anchored in clear trust deed rules and tailored to real member behaviours. The discussion explored why simply throwing more staff at claim backlogs doesn’t work and how only deep, systemic change can build genuine trust with members. Several points were raised, including the regulatory grey areas around nominations, the human cost of delays, and the need to make processes as straightforward, and as empathetic, as possible.

Who should listen

• Claims and operations leaders in Australian super funds struggling with legacy processes and regulatory pressure
• Product or legal professionals considering trust deed reform or digital transformation of member nominations
• Trustees and fund executives wary of adopting bold procedural changes post-regulatory action

• Connect with Kerry Vogel on LinkedIn
• Follow CBUS Super on LinkedIn
• Visit CBUS Super website

• Kerry Vogel emphasizes that death claims are both a crucial responsibility and a complex challenge for superannuation funds, highlighting the emotional weight behind these processes.
• The podcast reveals how Kerry led efforts at CBUS Super to overhaul the death claims process, aiming to simplify and enhance member understanding of their benefits.
• A significant point discussed was the need for clarity in binding nominations, as many members mistakenly believe their nominations are more definitive than they are, illustrating a gap in financial literacy.
• Kerry's approach includes not just streamlining procedures but also ensuring that the claims team maintains empathy, recognizing the human stories behind each claim.
• The conversation touched on the importance of regulatory compliance while seeking innovative solutions to make the claims process more efficient and user-friendly.
• Kerry stresses the continuous nature of improvement, suggesting that the claims process will always evolve, reflecting the need to stay responsive to member needs and industry changes.

#29. Guest Duncan McPherson, founder of Borromean Consulting and former Link Advice CEO, joins Sarah and Neil to dig into the evolving intersection of advice and superannuation delivery.

The discussion challenges the old idea that there’s a single operating model for advice within funds, arguing instead that the critical issue is how and where each fund draws the line between in-house and external capabilities—a threshold that's now shifting under regulatory, commercial, and technological pressures.

The conversation highlights a growing urgency for funds to modernise advice: digital advice is no longer a "bolt-on" but must be woven into the core service ecosystem. Members’ expectations are shaped by the rapid adoption of AI and digital experiences in other sectors—even as Australian consumers remain cautious and want to see human support layered into these new models. The industry’s own conservatism—with compliance teams sometimes slow to adapt after the Royal Commission—is now a real competitive risk, as members increasingly seek quick, personalised answers from tech-driven sources outside the traditional super system.

Funds also face a tough commercial reality: new member acquisition is costly and pointless if those members leave quickly. Retention hinges on a consistent, personalised member experience, and advice—particularly digital advice—plays a central role in building ongoing engagement throughout a member’s lifetime, not just at joining or retirement.

For those juggling advisor relationships, Duncan notes the tension: advisors can become a channel for assets to leave, especially if funds are seen as hard partners. Making advisor access easy and valued—through dedicated portals, integrated data, and clear strategy—is the only way for funds to remain in the game.

#28. Join Sarah and Neil as they recap from day two at the Future Fund Admin 2026 forum in Sydney.

This episode argues that super funds can’t achieve real member experience improvements by relying only on surface-level changes—like updated communication—without fixing the underlying systems and rules that shape every customer interaction. Through firsthand stories and honest discussion, the hosts show why complexity and legacy processes frustrate members and staff alike, and why personalisation efforts often walk a fine line between helpful and intrusive. The episode pushes leaders to rethink what “good” looks like and to get comfortable questioning long-held ways of doing things.

Who should listen

• Member operations and service leaders wrestling with complaints about process complexity
• Fund digital and product teams struggling to make personalisation feel supportive, not creepy
• Communications managers tasked with responding to unhappy members when the root cause is out of their hands

• The podcast dives deep into the evolving superannuation landscape, highlighting the pivotal role of member experience over technical jargon, which makes for a refreshing change.
• Listeners are reminded that even industry experts can struggle with superannuation processes, emphasizing the need for clearer communication across the board.
• Mary Payne's heartfelt story about her father's experience with super funds underscored the emotional weight behind the industry's technicalities, making it relatable.
• The conversation touches on the idea that improving member experience isn't just about technology, but fundamentally about understanding and addressing real human needs and emotions.
• Changing the trust deed was a surprising move discussed at the conference, showcasing that bold steps are being taken to enhance service delivery in superannuation.
• The episode wraps up with a light-hearted yet serious examination of the balance between data surveillance and genuine member engagement, leaving listeners with much to ponder.

#27. Join Sarah and Neil as they recap from day one at the Future Fund Admin 2026 forum in Sydney.

This episode grapples with whether Australia’s superannuation industry will really consolidate to just a handful of mega funds—and what that could mean for members, small funds, and fund administrators caught between regulatory expectations and practical realities. Sarah and Neil unpack how the growing focus on members’ real experiences is colliding with operational constraints, regulatory change, and technology.

Who should listen:

• Fund administrators weighing the costs and risks of consolidation, especially anyone managing a small or niche fund.
• Trustees or CEOs facing pressure over future business models and trustee structures.
• Operations and communications managers responsible for major regulatory rollouts (like Payday Super), wondering how to actually reach small employers.

#26. Co-hosts Neil Benson and Sarah Penn break down the latest superannuation shake-ups and tech trends.

• Industry super funds are now experiencing net outflows to retail funds, with $4.3 billion switching over two years. Sarah Penn questions whether proposed partnerships between industry funds and retail platforms actually benefit members, suggesting they may simply repackage underused direct investment models. Australians are warming up again to financial advice, with both hosts championing the difference quality advice makes.
• ART is using AI to improve the readability of member communications and transcribe adviser meetings, sparking a debate on literacy levels and member engagement. Meanwhile, Westpac’s massive Microsoft Copilot rollout and TAL’s chatbot and voice analytics innovations show how AI is moving deeper into finance, although Neil Benson wonders if adoption is as widespread as press releases imply. Regulators aren’t entirely convinced either, with APRA calling for stricter governance and risk controls around new AI solutions.
• A new proposal to automatically convert all super accounts to pension phase by age 75 aims to ensure retirement savings are actually spent in retirement—a move the hosts broadly support. As Telstra Super merges into Aware Super, further cementing industry consolidation, the fate of smaller funds comes into question. With APRA doubling down on trustee accountability and operational oversight, the message is clear: no matter your size, there’s no passing the buck when it comes to member interests.

#25. Should retirees be forced to take a pension? Why are Treasury’s latest consultation papers sending shockwaves through the super industry? We break it down for you in this episode.

• The definition of a platform trustee — and why it matters (02:08)
• Increased penalties for misconduct: who really ends up paying? (05:05)
• Proposed waiting periods for super fund switching: policy fail or protection? (06:19)
• How compensation proposals could change platform oversight (11:00)

• Should lead generators be licensed like financial advisors? (18:19)
• Practical limits on financial product advertising and social media marketing (20:20)
• The ongoing crackdown on “finfluencers” and general advice (23:45)

• Why SMSFs are making most of the claims, and why Neil believes they should pay a levy (25:25)
• Is the CSLR a fair system, or just a cost passed to trustworthy advisors? (26:02)
• Should government step in as the safety net instead? (30:19)

• Waiting periods for super switching: Sarah argues these do little to protect consumers and mostly benefit big funds (07:34).
• Platform responsibility: Neil and Sarah both support stricter platform oversight, especially when large sums move into single risky investment options (13:14).
• Lead generation reform: Marketing firms involved in product distribution should fall under AFSL licensing, making enforcement easier and consumer harm less likely (19:17).
• CSLR funding: Most compensation claims come from SMSFs; making them contribute seems logical, but the hosts suggest a government backstop would be even better (29:16).

#24. On this episode of That Super Show, co-hosts Neil Benson and Sarah Penn break down the Treasury’s proposed ban on super fund advertising during onboarding, the shakeup in advisor education requirements, and dig into why APRA and the ATO are getting twitchy about payday super implementation (spoiler: small business, we see you…). Plus, are performance tests quietly killing investment innovation in Australia?

• Superannuation advertising ban consultation launches - employers can only display employee's stapled fund, employer's default fund, or a MySuper product from another fund. Bill has passed both houses, now Treasury is consulting on the regulations to support it.
• Education reform for financial advisers - Consult hub - Treasury has launched consultation paper regarding new class of financial advisors as part of DBFO T2.
• Payday Super Readiness | APRA - ATO and APRA have published a letter to RSEs to brace themselves and buckle up! APRA has concerns about some funds' readiness for Payday Super.
• ‘Parliamentary Friends’ launch sharpens focus on super - Super Review
• Superannuation performance test is stuck in red tape and could be creating a stagnant economy - performance test doesn't encourage outperformance, it discourages underperformance. As a result, money flows into indices, not into innovation.

#22. Co-hosts Sarah Penn and Neil Benson chat with Anthony Saliba, Partner at Deloitte Actuarial Consulting.

• Retirement income measurement challenge: Determining if retirement income solutions are working is complex, especially with new best practice principles released by Treasury.
• Best practice principles explained: Treasury’s principles aim to guide trustees in supporting retirees, but are non-binding and allow for flexibility and market-driven solutions.
• Principles-based vs. prescriptive rules: The industry favours a principles-based approach; there is ongoing discussion about whether these guidelines will eventually become enforceable standards.
• Realities for smaller funds: Some super funds may decide to exit members into specialist retirement funds rather than investing heavily in retirement offerings for a small retiree base.
• Complexity for members: Switching from accumulation to retirement products and navigating financial advice, age pension eligibility, and new lifetime income products creates challenges, especially for those without access to personal advice.
• Emphasis on member confidence: Leading funds invest in digital tools and education to improve member confidence and provide support beyond traditional advice models.
• Measuring outcomes: Funds should use objective, evidence-based data to evaluate retirement strategies and avoid “marking their own homework.”
• Personalisation and cohorts: True hyper-personalisation is aspirational; most funds cohort members by life stage and balance, with some moving toward more nuanced demographic analysis.
• Data access limitations: Lack of access to data like home ownership and marital status hampers more tailored solutions; innovative tools to gather member data can help bridge this gap.
• Regulatory barriers to engagement: Strict personal advice laws prevent funds from using member data for targeted communications and are seen as a roadblock to better member engagement.
• Drawdown patterns: Most retirees draw the minimum required, sometimes due to uncertainty or default settings; there are calls to encourage greater, more sustainable drawdowns early in retirement.
• Missed opportunities: Members often pay unnecessary tax or miss out on age pension entitlements simply by not taking key actions (like moving to drawdown phase or promptly applying for the pension).
• Annuities and product innovation: Lifetime income products can help manage longevity risk but suffer from low uptake; the industry is seeing product innovation and working toward better “solution” messaging.
• Asset-rich, income-poor issue: The system facilitates cases where people use super to increase home equity and then qualify for age pension; potential for equity release products and need for policy refinement.
• Key takeaway for trustees: Always use an evidence-based, objective approach when measuring outcomes and designing solutions, and clearly communicate trade-offs to help members make informed decisions.
