ABOUT · EDITORIAL POLICY
About The Retirement Companion
The Retirement Companion is a reader-focused publication for Australians predominantly aged 50 and over who are preparing for, making or adapting to changes in work and retirement. Money and retirement readiness are the first editorial focus.
One publisher, clearly described
The site is run by one Australia-based publisher who does not appear personally on the publication. The Retirement Companion does not claim professional credentials, personal financial advice services or firsthand experience with products.
How a guide is prepared
Content is prepared with AI assistance and reviewed and edited by the publisher before publication. AI output is not treated as a source. Important factual statements are checked against primary or official sources where available, and source links are provided so readers can verify details for themselves.
What the Money section does
Guides explain records, financial terms and assumptions that may be useful when preparing for retirement. They provide general information only. They do not assess an individual’s circumstances, give personal financial advice or recommend a specific investment, product or strategy.
Updates and corrections
Australian rules and product information can change. Guides are reviewed when a material update is identified, and corrections are handled under the corrections policy. Readers can use the contact form to flag a possible error or ask an editorial question.
Commercial relationships
There are no paid affiliate links at launch. If that changes, relevant commercial relationships will be disclosed clearly near affected links. Read the affiliate disclosure for the current position.
