Australia - A Financial Services Centre

Australia is well positioned to become a regional financial services centre with more than $1 trillion of funds under management and a market acknowledged internationally as being sophisticated, innovative and highly competitive. Lifting finance and insurance exports as a share of Australian GDP from the current 2.9 per cent to 5 per cent would involve an eventual $3.7 billion stimulus to the Australian economy.  Superannuation and retirement savings is an area where Australian financial service providers have distinct expertise and as support for growing exports of financial services gathers momentum, you can keep up to date with all the latest reports, speeches and research.
