The objectives of your investment options
Different investment options have different levels of risk, and of course, return. Our investment options are designed for different people at different stages of life, and each have a different objective.
-
Balanced (Default)
Return objective: CPI +3.5% per year after fees and tax, over 10 years.
Our Balanced (default) option is true to label—its asset allocation has a balanced mix of growth assets and defensive assets. This option is specifically designed to maximise the likelihood that you will achieve a comfortable retirement income, while making sure your balance is resilient and sustainable. On average, our Balanced option takes less risk than other super funds1.
-
Cash
Return objective: Bloomberg AusBond bank index rate of return, net of fees.
Our Cash option focuses on preserving capital, so it’s expected to have lower risk and lower return compared to other options.

In it for the long haul
It’s important to remember the long term role of superannuation. Your lifetime is the relevant investment horizon, not arbitrary reporting periods. This is why we seek to build resilient investment portfolios using high quality assets, so that whenever you choose to retire, you are able to do so regardless of the strength of the current markets.
