Sunsuper Pension Option
SuperRatings Pension Fund of The Year 2010
SuperRatings has recognised Sunsuper as Pension Fund of The Year for the second year in a row. We were judged against 400 criteria including member services, website access and functionality, financial advice, fund governance, investment performance, and fees and were found to be the ‘best value for money’ fund for retirees!
Sunsuper's pensions are designed to provide a regular income stream for your retirement. Depending on your circumstances, superannuation pensions can be an ideal investment because:
- they provide regular income paid directly to your bank, building society or credit union account,
- you can nominate how much and to whom benefits are paid if you die,
- you can choose from a range of investment options which you can vary with your changing needs,
- you could benefit from favourable tax treatment,
- you could benefit from favourable treatment for social security and Department of Veteran's Affairs (DVA) payments, and
- you can access your money if you need to (restrictions for the workforce pension apply if you are under 65 years of age and have not permanently retired from the workforce).
Sunsuper's flexible pension structure
Whether you are still working but want access to your superannuation benefits now to supplement your income and take advantage of some great tax benefits, or you have fully retired and want an income during retirement, Sunsuper has pension options to suit you.
- The Sunsuper Retirement Pension provides you with a regular income stream and gives you flexibility and access to your account balance,
- The Sunsuper Workforce Pension provides you with a regular income stream while you keep working, allowing you to take advantage of some excellent tax benefits to maintain your income while growing your super, or even to work less without reducing your regular income.
