July 2020 Newsletter
In this month’s newsletter, as we commence the new financial year, we begin by providing information about change in key personal finance areas for wealth accumulators, pre-retirees and retirees. We then discuss life insurance, where an insurer has the option to include one or more beneficial supplementary provisions alongside the core provisions of their current life insurance policy.
Our animation illustrates borrowing power and the importance of understanding the difference between potential and actual borrowing power when looking to enter the residential property market. We cover the HomeBuilder grant program for eligible owner-occupiers and first home buyers, which is the new COVID-19 economic response recently announced by the Government.
Lastly, we leave you with an insightful video on consumer purchases by National Geographic—it investigates whether a product’s price can influence our pre-purchase expectation, and post-purchase experience, of its quality.
In addition, our learning modules have been updated to reflect new legislation from 1 July 2020, so please feel free to look around and learn more.
To take full advantage of the Bellwether Knowledge Centre, join today for an exclusive login and browse all the industry information at your leisure.
Kind Regards,
