Good morning everyone. Now the former head of the Commonwealth Bank David Murray has warned that Australia’s superannuation system has to change. Mr. Murray’s spoken in Canberra to the Committee for Sustainable Retirement Incomes which is lobbying the government for a new approach to retirement incomes. Yesterday Prime Minister Tony Abbot again ruled out changing superannuation tax concessions. Assistant Treasurer Josh Frydenberg will tell overtime at Income Conference today that the Federal government will take any proposed changes recommended by the tax whitepaper to the next election. Economists are expecting Australia’s economic growth to remain lacklustre when the latest national accounts are released today. A survey of analysts by Bloomberg shows they expect gross product to increase by point seven percent in the first three months of this year, which is a slight improvement on the December quarter but that will still take the annual rate of growth further blow trend from two and a half percent to two point one percent.
To the markets. The Wall Street was a bit turbulent overnight. The Dow lost twenty-eight points. The NASDAQ and the S&P500 were both down point one percent. In London the FTSE also lost a third of a percent.
