Meeting their superannuation guarantee obligations to employees can be a daunting task for employers, who need to ensure that they offer ‘choice of fund’ facilities to their employees – but also offer a ‘default’ fund that is complying – and appropriately researched as being appropriate to the likely needs of the members; as well as offering personal risk insurance cover.
Continuum Financial Planners can provide a solution to this problem for employers whilst at the same time facilitating opportunities for their employees’ education about financial matters. Employees can access professional financial planning advice from our team and in the process recognise the added value of their loyalty to the employer.
We facilitate this solution through Asgard Wealth Management superannuation accounts; a public offer facility that features benefits, including:
- Low cost in its market
- Accessible online
- Provided through an award-winning platform

- Insurance options that can be 'automatically accepted' within defined categories
- Financial planning/investment market education
