    This is the first in a series of three papers examining retirement wealth decisions in Australia 's superannuation system. The work seeks to introduce a holistic approach to examining decision making across the key stages of retirement wealth provision, namely: accumulation; conversion; and, decumulation. The central idea considered in this study relates to the final superannuation benefit achieved during the accumulation phase.
