Information for your clients

Four key benefits to tell your clients 1. the potential to access both tax and social security benefit concessions including:
  • higher pension reasonable benefit limit, allowing more retirement income to be concessionally taxed
  • qualifying for 50% assets test exemption which may enable access to a higher Social Security or Veterans' Affairs benefit.

2. the ability to create a tailor-made portfolio choosing from over 30 investment options managed by a range of leading investment managers

3. the flexibility to switch as needs or investment conditions change, without switching fees (however, transaction costs may apply)

4. special tax smart features and estate planning tools like non-lapsing death benefit nominations and compensation payments for contributions tax.

This product might suit clients who
  • have excess benefits and may have previously chosen to use a two allocated pension approach
  • can now look to target the higher pension RBL rather than the lump sum RBL
  • would typically put their money into other complying pension products for the assets test exemption
  • want the flexibility to change investment options or investment managers
  • want an all-in-one pension package that meets their pension investment needs
  • want extra features like estate planning and non-lapsing death benefit nominations.
