In this week’s episode of Relative Return Insider, hosts Maja Garaca Djurdjevic and Keith Ford break down the flurry of activity and announcements since the calendar ticked over to FY2025–26, from ASIC action to super fund results.

• Whether CBA’s impressive performance is set to continue or if it will fall back to earth.
