The MySuper Product Dashboard sets out important information about our MySuper Lifecycle Investment Strategy (LIS), which forms part of our MySuper product offer. Use this dashboard to help compare our MySuper product with other MySuper products.
If you join Mine Super and don’t choose which investment option/s to invest your super in, it will be automatically invested in our MySuper Lifecycle Investment Strategy. The strategy works by giving you greater exposure to growth assets such as shares in the early stages of your working life, and then reducing this as you get older by increasing your exposure to defensive assets such as fixed income and enhanced cash. This exposes you to greater risk when you are young and then aims to reduce volatile investment returns as you get older. The Lifecycle Investment Strategy is separated by three lifestages and invests the balance of your super into one of our three pre-mixed investment options depending on your age:
Under age 50 - High Growth
Aged 50 to 54 - Growth
Aged 55 and above - Balanced
To view the information most relevant to you, go to the lifestage that’s applicable to your age in the dashboard below.
The MySuper Product Dashboard shows the investment performance that a member would have experienced if they had fully invested in the Lifecycle Investment Strategy (LIS) in each financial year.
The investment performance for the Under age 50 lifestage shows the investment performance of the High Growth (previously Aggressive) pre-mixed investment option. Due to changes in our LIS, this investment option historically applied to different lifestages with slightly different age groups: ages 50 and under - between 25 March 2021 and 19 May 2024; and ages 0 to 44 - before 25 March 2021.
The MySuper Product Dashboard does not show 10 years of data for the current lifestages of members aged 50 to 54, and aged 55 and above. As these lifestages commenced on 20 May 2024 (and there is no equivalent predecessor lifestage), the investment performance shown in the MySuper Product Dashboard for these lifestages commences on 1 July 2024.
We updated our Lifecycle Investment Strategy (LIS) on 20 May 2024 and 25 March 2021.
On 20 May 2024, we simplified our LIS from 16 lifestages down to three. These changes resulted in members over 60 having a greater exposure to growth assets in comparison to the previous LIS.
Between 25 March 2021 and 19 May 2024, our LIS had 16 lifestages with members between the ages of 50 to 65 gradually moving towards a more defensive asset allocation each year. Members aged 50 and under were 100% invested in the High Growth investment option. From ages 51 to 64, members were invested in a mix of the High Growth and Conservative Balanced investment options, with the percentage mix changing each year on their birthday. At age 65, members were 100% invested in the Conservative Balanced investment option. The Conservative Balanced investment option was discontinued on 20 May 2024.
Prior to 25 March 2021, our LIS invested a member’s super in one of our four pre-mixed investment options, with their balance moving to a new investment option at ages 45, 55 and 65 as shown in the table below.
