Mr. O\u2019Farrell said that Choice of fund means working Australians can choose which fund their Employer Superannuation Guarantee contributions are paid into. <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re eligible for choice which most of us are, your employer is required to provide you with a Choice Form when you commence employment so you can nominate your fund. You also have the option of changing your chosen super fund every 12 months. <\/p>\n

O\u2019Farrell also said that Australians need to be aware that if they don\u2019t make a choice, their super will be paid into their employer\u2019s nominated fund, which may or may not suit the employee\u2019s personal situation. <\/p>\n

Choosing a fund to help grow your retirement savings is a very important decision. You need to compare things such as the fund\u2019s returns, fees and insurance against each other. <\/p>\n

Here are a few handy pointers he gave on what to look for when choosing. <\/p>\n

Is the fund an industry fund? \u2013 The benefits of choosing an industry super fund are many. They normally have lower fees, there are no commissions paid to sales people, all profits are returned to members and the products are geared towards the industry they serve. <\/p>\n

Investment Performance \u2013 How do the fund\u2019s investment returns compare? Are they above the average fund return over the long term? <\/p>\n

Investment Choices \u2013 How many investment options do they offer, and do they suit you now and in the future? <\/p>\n

Insurance \u2013 What types and levels of cover are offered and what are the costs? <\/p>\n

Fund for Life \u2013 Can you take any of the funds with you when you change jobs? <\/p>\n

As an industry fund for the hospitality industry Mr. O\u2019Farrell recommended that Intrust Super is definitely worth taking a look at when you\u2019re making a choice. With proven returns, low fees, competitive insurance and products designed for casual and part time employees not just full timers. Best of all as a 100% industry fund, Intrust Super put all profits back into our members\u2019 pockets. <\/p>\n
