This Australian study utilises quantitative and qualitative research planning. Affective characteristics of trust were found to be essential to the client-adviser relationship. Increased legislation and specific behavioural and technical competencies of advisers were also found to build consumer trust in financial advice. The study’s results provide guidance to financial advisers with regards to the skills and factors that build and maintain trust with clients. This may lead some advisers to engage in additional training or education programs to improve specific skills, or to reconsider the way they interact with clients.

This article investigates to what extent accountants are taught about self-managed superannuation funds (SMSF) in their Australian undergraduate accounting degrees and subsequent professional education programs. The article reports a survey of 138 academics teaching into Australian undergraduate accounting degrees. The results indicate that during their undergraduate accounting degrees, students are likely to be taught little about SMSFs. In a curriculum audit of their subsequent professional studies through professional bodies there is also minimal coverage of SMSFs. The evidence presented in this paper supports reforms to increase the educational requirements for accountants to give specialist advice in this area.

Can Stakeholders be Satisfied with Accountants’ Education to Act as Advisors to Self-Managed Superannuation Funds

Homeowner baby boomers have relatively high levels of wealth in their homes and relatively low levels of superannuation. At the same time, non-homeowner baby boomers, especially lone retirees, appear to be in increasing need of income support such as that provided by the Age Pension. Both of these groups will need income support mechanisms during their retirement. In this context, policy momentum has been building in Australia for the inclusion of home equity in the retirement income mix. To address that need, this paper outlines a generation-targeted solution for supplementing baby boomer retiree income through efficiently drawing on housing equity. The proposed new product – Home Equity Accounts – differs from existing related products by being government-backed, securitised and incorporating financial planning.

Averting Poverty and Government Budgetary Pressure Through Releasing Home Equity: A Safe and Informed Solution for Baby Boomer Homeowners

<abstract xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

The equity risk premium (ERP) remains one of the most hotly contested ideas in finance. The disagreement, in practical and theoretical terms, centres on how best to measure the risk of an investment, how to convert this risk measure into an expected return that compensates the investor for holding that risk, and its degree of predictability. This paper provides Australian evidence for the period 1900 through 2014.
