Superhero Super offers two different investment options. The option you choose will depend on how much control you want to have over how your super is invested.
If you invest your super in the Autopilot option, at least 70% of your super balance will be invested in an index ETF as selected by Superhero. This index investment option tracks the Vanguard Diversified Balanced Index ETF, which has a mix of defensive and growth asset allocation including bonds and shares. You can also choose to invest more than 70% of your balance in the managed index fund, but no less than 70%.
You can invest the remaining 30% of your balance in a variety of themed ETFs (you can't invest more than 30% of your balance in these themed ETFs). There are six different themed ETFs to choose from, including: US Tech; Asia Tech; Global Healthcare; Global Sustainability; Gold; High Interest Cash.
You can invest up to 30% of our balance in one ETF or a mix of all six. For example, you might choose to invest the full 30% into the Global Healthcare theme or split it up between a few of them.
The Control investment option allows you much more control over where your super is invested, and allows you to invest directly into individual shares and ETFs. You need to invest at least 25% of your balance in Superhero's chosen index ETF (Vanguard Diversified Balanced Index ETF), and up to 75% can be invested directly in ASX300 shares and ETFs.
This means you can choose individual shares and ETFs listed on the ASX and how much of your balance you'd like to invest in each one (up to a maximum of 75%). There's no limit around how many individual shares you invest in and how often you switch these, however keep in mind there are brokerage fees for each trade (more on this below).
Because you have control over how your super is invested, the performance returns will vary depending on your investment choices and how each stock or ETF performs.
Here's a breakdown of the fees for each investment option.
The total annual fees will depend on how often you trade the themed ETFs, so every member will have different annual fees.
