One Nation Senate Candidate Jennifer Game on franking credits: People in retirement or very close to, are going to lose to the tune of $5billion a year. There are winners, and they are going to be superannuation funds run by unions. MORE: outsiders

FULL INTERVIEW: Your Money host Peter Switzer has weighed in on a mediocre reporting season but says Opposition leader Bill Shorten's franking credits policy has caused a surprising stir in the market.

Mr Switzer says the Labor's franking credits policy has several companies paying 'special big dividends', which are then being spent on further shares because interest rates remain so low. Labor's policy seeks to close a loophole that gives tax-payer funded handouts to wealthy share investors for excess 'franking credits', which are credits that allow Australian companies to pass on tax paid at the company level to shareholders.
