What does the NSW regional permit mean for property investors? Who really wins from the BHP-Woodside merger?

On this episode of The nestegg Podcast, guest host Fergus Halliday checks in with our three experts to discuss this week's biggest conversations about super, property and investment. Steve Waters, director of Right Property Group, unpacks the implications of the NSW government's new regional permit system and what it means for the near term within the state's property market. What should potential buyers and sellers expect from Sydney's spring selling season, given the ongoing lockdown restrictions? Meanwhile, RMIT's senior lecturer of finance, Dr Angel Zhong, breaks down what the BHP-Woodside merger deal means for both parties, plus investors. Could the move make it easier for ESG investors to get a foot in the door on one of the biggest oil and gas giants? Last but not least, tax and super guru Timothy Munro talks us through whether the Future Fund can cut it in the superannuation space, and what the rise in calls to Australia's biggest debt hotlines can tell us about the ongoing impacts of the pandemic on everyday consumers.
