How Big is the Super Gap Between Men and Women?

Women retire with significantly less superannuation than men across all age groups in Australia. The gender super gap is driven by career breaks for caregiving, lower average wages, and part-time employment patterns. By retirement age, the typical gap between male and female super balances is over $80,000.
