GESB Super investment options
We invest your super across a range of different asset classes to give you the best chance to grow your super. You can have your super automatically invested in the My GESB Super plan, or you can choose your investment plan. This means you can:
- Choose the asset classes your super is invested in, from Shares to Cash investments
- Choose how much of your super is allocated between the asset classes
- Change your investment plan to suit your retirement savings goals
Your super might be one of the biggest investments you’ll ever make. The investment plan you choose now can make a difference to the amount of income you’ll have when you retire. You might want to speak with a financial adviser before making a decision about your investment plan.
Different assets can create different returns
GESB Super offers you a choice of investment plans. These plans invest in different assets, with the returns linked to the performance of the financial markets.
