4 4 SUPER SA SELECT > PDS 2. HOW SUPER WORKS Super is a powerful way of saving for your retirement. It s an investment in your future! The Commonwealth Government s tax concessions and incentives are there to help boost your super savings. While you are working it s compulsory for your employer to make contributions of 9.5% of your salary into your super fund. These contributions are known as the Superannuation Guarantee (SG). While most people can choose which super fund they would like their super paid into, as a SA public sector employee, you only have the option of having your employer contributions paid into the Triple S Scheme or Super SA Select. Types of contributions to super Employer contributions include your minimum 9.5% employer contributions and salary sacrifice contributions. Voluntary contributions after-tax contribution: paying money into your super from your take-home pay. (You can t claim a tax deduction for your after-tax contributions.) salary sacrifice contribution: asking your employer to deduct extra money from your pay before tax is taken out and to pay this into your super. Government Co-Contribution is a payment you could receive from the Commonwealth Government, if you qualify, for making after-tax contributions to your super. Low Income Super Contribution (LISC) is a payment of up to $500 pa from the Commonwealth Government to people with an adjusted taxable income of less than $37,000. It is calculated as 15% of the concessional (before tax) contributions your employer makes. The LISC has been legislated to continue until the end of the financial year. Making contributions Organise automatic fortnightly payments to be deducted straight from your pay. Choose after-tax or salary sacrifice, or both. Make after-tax lump sum payments by cheque, money order or BPAY. Use the Personal Super Contributions Calculator on the Super SA website at to compare salary sacrifice and after-tax contributions.

5 5 2. HOW SUPER WORKS CONT D Contribution caps The Commonwealth Government has set certain contribution caps on the amount of concessionally taxed super you can contribute or receive.

8 8 SUPER SA SELECT > PDS 4. RISKS OF SUPER All investments have some type of risk and super is no different. Different investment options may carry different levels of risk, depending on the assets that make up that option.

So when it comes to your super, it s important to know: the value of your super investment may go up and down the level of your returns will vary returns are not guaranteed and you may lose some of your money future returns may differ from past returns laws affecting super may change. Your choice of risk level will vary depending on a range of factors including your age, investment time frame, your other investments and your risk tolerance. As a Super SA Select member, you should be aware that capital losses are possible, depending on the investment option you choose and its performance over time. This is due to the volatility of investment markets. It s also important to keep in mind that your future super savings, including contributions and investment earnings, might not be enough to provide you with the lifestyle you want in retirement. You should read the important information about risks of super before making a decision. Go to the Investment fact sheet at The material relating to risks of super may change between the time when you read this PDS and the day when you acquire the product.

12 12 SUPER SA SELECT > PDS 6. FEES AND COSTS Consumer Advisory Warning Did you know? Small differences in both investment performance and fees and costs can have a substantial impact on your long-term returns. For example, total annual fees and costs of 2% of your account balance rather than 1% could reduce your final return by up to 20% over a 30 year period. For example reduce it from $100,000 to $80,000. You should consider whether features such as superior investment performance or the provision of better member services justify higher fees and costs. To find out more If you would like to find out more, or see the impact of fees based on your own circumstances, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) website, has a superannuation calculator to help you check out different fee options. Fees and costs for Balanced investment option The table opposite shows fees and costs that you may be charged for the Balanced investment option and can be used to compare costs between different super products. These fees and costs may be paid directly from your super account or deducted from your investment earnings, depending on the fee or cost.

16 16 SUPER SA SELECT > PDS 7. HOW SUPER IS TAXED Unlike many other forms of savings, super is treated favourably under tax legislation. Tax is applied to your super in three different ways: on before-tax contributions made by you or your employer on the investment earnings, and when you withdraw your super. Tax and contribution caps The Commonwealth Government has set certain caps on the amount of concessionally taxed super you can contribute or receive: Before-tax contributions are capped at $35,000 each financial year if you are aged 50 or over. They are capped at $30,000 each financial year if you are aged 49 or under. This includes contributions made by your employer and any salary sacrifice contributions. Before-tax contributions are known as concessional contributions. After-tax contributions are capped at $180,000 each financial year or, if you are under age 65 during the financial year, you can bring forward the cap for two years to contribute up to $540,000 in one year. After-tax contributions are known as non-concessional contributions. Exceeding these caps will incur the highest marginal rate plus Medicare levy and 2% Temporary Budget Repair Levy on the excess amount. Tax on contributions The tax applied to contributions is determined by their source before-tax or after-tax monies and compliance with the contribution caps set by the Commonwealth Government. The tax rates on contributions are based on provision of your Tax File Number (TFN). Without a TFN your before-tax contributions are subject to the highest marginal rate plus Medicare levy. See page 18 for information on providing your TFN to Super SA.

19 19 8. INSURANCE IN YOUR SUPER Super SA Select members can take advantage of the flexible and low-cost insurance offered through Triple S. The size and scale of Triple S means it can provide low-cost flexible insurance options. Retaining insurance through a scheme with a larger pool of members means that premiums can be kept as low as possible for Super SA Select members. Most members of Super SA Select will have access to: Income Protection Insurance (IP) Death and Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) Insurance Refer to the Triple S PDS for further information on insurance. Insurance premiums and Triple S An amount equal to the premiums for any Income Protection or Death & Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) Insurance you have within Triple S will be deducted from your Super SA Select Account and paid into your Triple S account.
