The cost of our Member Advice Consultants providing general information about AvSuper accounts, including our investment options and your contribution options, is included within the administration fees for existing members.

Our income stream members can access an annual income stream check up – these are a great way to keep your income stream on track, just like you get regular health checks. These check ups do attract a fee to cover your entire financial situation.

Some more complex advice, such as planning retirement factoring in Centrelink entitlements, is generally a fee-for-service option. Your adviser will discuss any fees with you before providing the advice. Note that fees can be paid directly or from your AvSuper account (for advice about your AvSuper account only).

Our consultants can help you understand and make decisions about your AvSuper membership. After chatting to you and collecting all relevant information, our Member Advice Consultant will analyse your situation and prepare a written statement of advice (SOA) outlining the options which we think best suit you.
AvSuper’s Member Advice Consultants are qualified, professional financial advisers able to assist you with specific personal advice needs related to AvSuper and retirement.

Note: AvSuper consultants do not receive any commissions so you can be confident that the advice takes into account YOUR best interests.

After chatting to you and collecting all relevant information, our Member Advice Consultant will analyse your situation and prepare a written statement of advice (SOA) outlining the options which we think best suit you. It’s a good idea to have financial information with you at the appointment (read our fact sheet for what information may be required).

Of course, simpler advice can be given quickly over the phone or in a short appointment.

Our consultants can help you understand and make decisions about your AvSuper membership. Read some common questions answered by our advice consultants for ideas on how we can help you.

Note that our super advice is limited to your AvSuper membership and does not include recommendations of other financial products.

Broadly, when you retire (completely or by reducing working hours) you can leave your money in super, withdraw it all or access an income stream – or a combination of these. With tax and Centrelink implications, this can be a complex decision.

An AvSuper Advice Consultant can help you understand your options and provide you with advice that best suits your retirement needs. We can help you with strategic investment advice, decisions about selling real estate or shares to fund super, make a recontribution strategy, what type of beneficiary to nominate and other questions.

AvSuper Advice might be just what you need to help your super take off – and land safely in retirement!
