Change your investment option
The investment strategy you choose now can make a difference to the amount of income you have in retirement. Here are some tools and information to help you make an informed investment choice.
Choose the right investment option for your needs
Our investment options invest in different assets and their returns are linked to how the financial markets perform.
You can choose from a range of Diversified investment options designed by us, or create your own investment mix by choosing any combination of our Diversified and Asset Class options.
If you don’t choose an option, we will automatically invest your super into the default option for your account.

How to change your investment option
It’s easy to change your investment option in Member Online. See the Member Online help guide for easy instructions on how to change your option.
You can also change your investment option by filling out the relevant investment choice form.
Generally, we will process your investment switch within two to three business days1 after we receive your request. However, sometimes it may take up to five business days, or longer in exceptional cases, to process your switch.
Please keep in mind that your investment switch will take effect on the day it’s processed, rather than on the day it’s received. The unit price on the day we process your switch will be applied to the transaction. Learn more about when your investment switch will take effect.
