Investment options offered by LGIAsuper
Members can choose from the MySuper Lifecycle option or between a range of seven pre-made investment options. If you opt for the MySuper Lifecycle option, the investment experts at LGIAsuper will invest in asset classes according to your age, with a higher allocation in high-risk assets like shares while you’re young, and increasing your allocation in cash as you get older to protect your balance.
The ready-made investment options allow you to choose an investment strategy that’s in line with your appetite for risk, while the socially responsible options allow you to invest in line with your personal values. If you’d like to be a bit more hands-on with how your super is invested, you can also invest in up to five individual asset classes.
