Equity Plus
The BIG difference
Over the past 15 years, TWUSUPER has on average delivered more to members than the average retail super fund*. Get an idea of how much better off you could have been with TWUSUPER over the past 3, 10 or 15 years.
The Equity Plus option may suit members who have an investment timeframe of 7 years or more and who can accept a higher level of risk and fluctuations in returns.
The information below covers Super, Pre-retirement Super Pensions (TTR) and Retirement Super Pensions (Pension Account).
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.
