So you now have the option of stapling when it comes to your super fund, but what does it actually mean?

Superannuation has undergone a raft of changes this year in a move to make the industry more transparent and accountable to members.

These reforms, known as Your Future, Your Super, include 'stapling' which will see people taking their main super fund from employer to employer when they change jobs.

A new annual performance test will call out underperforming funds, which will have to improve their performance before they can take on new members.

In this episode of the Friends With Money podcast, managing editor Julia Newbould is joined by Active Super CEO Phil Stockwell to find out how everyday Aussies will be affected by the new super landscape.

When I retired from the federal public service I was advised to put some money into (now) Hesta's industry fund's TAP ( term allocated). This is now closed and the original benefits don't advantage me - worse I'm not allowed to access any money except to move to another fund. In my mid70ties,my chances of getting into another fund are minimal through a work contract - but if I did get lucky, how can I move my remaining funds out with minimum fuss ? I really need some money for urgent house repairs.
