Think before you switch

While switching investment options in volatile markets might give you some comfort now, over the long term it may reduce the earning potential of your super, and that could mean less money in retirement.

For most people, super is a long-term investment. That means you shouldn't let short-term performance influence your long-term investment strategy.

You should only consider switching investment options if it is in line with your long-term investment strategy.

* Comparisons modelled by SuperRatings, commissioned by TWUSUPER and shows average differences in net benefit of TWUSUPER's balanced investment option and the 'main Balanced option' of retail funds tracked by SuperRatings, with a 5 (119 options), 10 (57 options) and 15 (39 options) year performance history, taking into account historical earnings and fees – excluding contribution, entry, exit and additional advisor fees – of 'main Balanced options'. A ‘main Balanced option’ being the fund’s largest Balanced option where 60% to 76% of the fund’s assets are invested in growth investments. This is generally the fund’s default option. Where a fund does not have a Balanced option, the option closest to SuperRatings benchmark range of 60% to 76% growth investments is used. Outcomes vary between individual funds.
