Comparisons modelled by SuperRatings, commissioned by ISA and shows average differences in pension net benefit of the ‘main pension Balanced option’ of 7 Industry SuperFunds and retail funds tracked by SuperRatings, over a 5 year period. A ‘main pension Balanced option’ being the fund’s largest pension Balanced option where 60% to 76% of the fund’s assets are invested in growth investments. Where a fund does not have a Balanced option, the option closest to SuperRatings’ benchmark range of 60% to 76% growth investments is used. Outcomes vary between individual funds.

Advice at any age
Ray joined First Super a few years ago. Thinking about his retirement, he didn’t want to rely on the government Age Pension. He spoke with one of First Super’s financial advisers who created a retirement plan.
The cost of his retirement plan was already covered by his First Super membership fees. To his surprise, he may be able to retire earlier than he thought and with money ‘in his pocket’.
