We may make changes to the fees we charge
From time to time, we might need to change our fees to make sure the structure and level of fees is appropriate, including any extra costs from government taxes or statutory charges.
We’ll always let you know about any changes through our website or through your member statement. If the change is an increase in fees or charges, we’ll give you at least 30 days’ notice.
1 If your account balance is less than $6,000 at the end of the financial year, certain fees and costs charged to you in relation to administration and investment are capped at 3% of the account balance. Any amount charged in excess of that cap must be refunded.
