Investment Choice

Ten Things You Should Know About Investment Choice

  1. Investment choice gives you the flexibility to decide how to invest your Member Benefit.
  2. Investment choice only applies to your Member Benefit which is made up of your contributions and investment returns. The larger part of your benefit, the Employer Benefit, is fully paid for by the Australian Government and is not affected by investment returns while you are a contributing Member.
  3. You don't have to make a choice. If you don't want to make a choice that's OK, your Member Benefit will be invested in the Default strategy which is the Growth strategy.
  4. It's free! At this time, you can switch how your benefit is invested at any time, free of charge. The Trustees may introduce a fee in the future.
  5. There are no deadlines. Investment choice is here to stay. You can make a choice today, or any time in the future.
  6. Military Super offers five investment strategies from which you can choose. Invest in one or a combination of these.
  7. You can choose a different investment strategy for your existing Member Benefit and your future Member contributions.
  8. Seek professional advice. If you need help deciding which investment strategy is best for you, contact the Financial Planning Association who will put you in touch with a certified financial planner.
  9. Unless you nominate otherwise, your choice is effective from the first Tuesday following ComSuper's receipt of your application. You will receive confirmation of your choice.
