So, for those who\Nhaven't used webinars before, very simple Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,technology, sit back and relax.

You can move\Nforward, you can go back in the slides, Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and you can watch it as many times as you\Nlike, and from my understanding, this Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,webinar will be staying live on the GESB \Nwebsite, so probably around the end of Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the financial year, at which point we'll\Nmost likely get a new presentation up.

So if you do Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,need personalised financial advice, \Nyou'll need to go elsewhere to get that, Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,as GESB only provides you general advice.\NNow in today's session there is a lot to Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,get through, some of which might be\Nconcepts that you're familiar with, Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and some maybe not. So in this session \Nwe're gonna talk about the basics of Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,investing, and we're gonna talk about \Nthings like income tax, and how that Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,impacts investing, budgeting, where to use\Nyour money, borrowing, and debt. Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Also going to talk about with investment\Nconcepts, the idea of compounding Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,interest, the value of superannuation, \Nunderstanding the different asset classes Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that exist within super, and what \Ninvestment options are available.

Now we've been around for over\N85 years, we've grown over $42 billion Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,in funds under management as of 31st \NDecember 2024, and GESB, being a Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,government department, we're a\Nnot-for-profit organisation.

Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,are to run the fund, we are \Nnot-for-profit. And our returns are Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,competitive and long-term. Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,In regards to GESB's product structure,\Npeople often get a little confused, Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,but it's quite simple. GESB at the top\Nof the tree there stands for Government Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Employee Superannuation Board. Below that\Nare the different schemes that we Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,administer. Now we're got some old \Nlegacy schemes like the Pension scheme Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and the Gold State Super scheme,\Nwe're not going to be talking about Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,those at all today, okay, they don't sit\Nwithin the ??? of today's presentation. Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,We're predominantly going to be talking\Nabout superannuation, that are in the Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,accumulation phase, and are accumulation\Naccounts, so West State Super, GESB Super, Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and some of the other invest, general\Nsuper funds that work in a similar fashion. Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,When we speak about stuff that is general,\Nsuperannuation, I'll make that very Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,well-known. When we're talking about \Nanything that might be GESB specific, Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I'll also make that well-known. What we're\Nnot going to talk about in great detail Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,today, or if at all, are the allocated \Npensions. They are the retired products Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that most people use to draw down their\Nretirement savings. Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Well let's quickly talk about West State\Nand GESB Super because there are some Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,differences between the two of them, \Nand you need to be aware. So, West State Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Super was the default super fund for \NWA State Public Servants who commenced Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,working for the government prior to \N15 April 2007. The reason that is Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,important is that after April 2007, new\Nemployees to the public sector might have Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,had a GESB Super account open, or perhaps\Nsome other super fund, Australian Super, Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Hostplus, something like that. The reason\Nit's important to know, is that most Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Australian funds like GESB Super, and most\Nother funds, are considered to be taxed Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,super scheme. Why is this important?\NThe government allows super contributions Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to be contributed at a lower rate of tax\Nthan your normal pay. We need to remember Dialogue: 0,9:59:59.99,9:59:59.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,that super comes under the tax regime, \Nand GESB super,
