Before I consolidate my super funds what should I consider?
Before considering fees and investments options, the main element you should consider is the life and personal insurances that may be included in your fund. All too often people close funds without first considering the insurance they will lose if they do that. If you close a fund then join a new fund without taking insurance advice you may not be eligible for insurances due to age, known or potential health issues. Remember your super has two purposes, to protect your family’s lifestyle now should something happen to you, and also to fund your lifestyle in retirement.
When you apply to become a Cashel Super member we will complete a complementary insurance review of your existing funds and your current needs. Our recommendations may include maintaining your current fund, or applying for new insurances. Each recommendation is based on your personal needs.
How does Cashel Super compare to Australian Super, MLC Super or Plum Super?
Australian Super, REST Super and other industry super funds are owned and operated by union groups and generally provide generic investment options and form the default starting option for many employees and employers. They offer a one size fits all solution.
MLC Super, Colonial First State and Plum Super are examples of retail super funds. Established by large financial institutions to replicate the function of most industry super funds. These funds sometimes offer members the ability to obtain paid financial advice and a greater choice of investment options.
Cashel Super has been established by Cashel Family Office to provide a genuine sophisticated alternative to people who no longer want an expensive self managed super fund, or those seeking a sophisticated retail super fund that is priced similar to an industry super fund but with the added benefit of dedicated financial and debt advisers who utilise our platform partners such as J.P. Morgan and AIA to invest globally and obtain the right insurances for your personal circumstances. Cashel Super will be a highly customisable superannuation fund that has been desired for the successful and aspirational alike.
