Whether you're just getting started or already on top of your super, these five simple checks can help keep you on track and uncover opportunities to boost your balance.
Your super account may include some insurance cover. This can provide you with financial support if you pass away or are unable to work due to sickness or injury.
If you don't have any insurance through your super, you may be eligible to apply for cover.
Your super is likely to be one of your biggest assets. Telling us who your super should go to when you pass away will ensure it goes directly to the people you choose.
You can change or cancel your existing nomination at any time.
If you pass away without a binding death nomination or reversionary beneficiary, or if the person(s) you nominate don't meet the eligibility criteria at the time of your death, we will generally pay the balance of your account to your estate.
It's always a good idea to have a current valid will outlining how your estate should be distributed.
