Key features of AMP Super

  • Default insurance options. Eligible members will get default insurance cover when joining the fund with no medical exams.
  • MySuper product. The AMP MySuper Lifestage investment option is the default investment option for all members when joining the fund, unless you choose otherwise. It invests your super in line with your age.
  • Pre-mixed investment options. Members can choose between a range of different pre-mixed investment options that each have a different risk level and asset allocation.

AMP Super pre-mixed investment options

Members can choose between different diversified investment options depending on the level of risk you want to take on. If you don't make an investment choice, you'll be placed in the MySuper Lifestage option, which is the default MySuper investment product designed to suit most members.

The Conservative options have the lowest level of investment risk and invest largely in fixed interest and cash. They're designed for members looking to protect their balance, with some growth over the medium term.

You can choose between:

  • Conservative Index
  • Future Directions Conservative
Low to Medium
Moderately Conservative

These options have a more even balance between growth and defensive assets compared to the Conservative option. It's designed for members who aren't comfortable taking on too much risk and who wish to avoid market fluctuations in the short term, while still gaining some level of capital growth.

  • Moderately Conservative Index
  • Future Directions Moderately Conservative
Medium
Balanced

These options have more allocation to growth assets, with about two thirds of your balance invested in growth assets. These options sit in the middle, and are designed to suit most members. There's an ethical option in this group, too.

  • Future Directions Balanced
  • Pendal Sustainable Balanced
