A new study has revealed which Australians are least confident about a comfortable retirement and how much they will need. T


Key Points
  • The AMP data shows that the ‘sandwich generation’ of migrants who support children while also caring for a parent or elderly relative are the least confident about their retirement future.
  • Single mothers and women are particularly affected by the lack of confidence in a comfortable retirement, with less than two in five feeling confident about their financial security.
  • Experts advise finding out about superannuation and engaging a finance expert to help you prepare for retirement.
