What pension accounts offered by Intrust Super?
Intrust Super offers Super Stream, a low-cost pension option that offers a wide range of investment choices and the opportunity to select between a lump sum or regular payments for those who have retired or who are nearing retirement. Members can take advantage of a choice of 10 ready-made investment options (five are pooled and five are individual asset class options) or any mix of these. The pension is available in two options:
