8 1. Set up your plan online xx You can join BT Super by completing the online application form with just a few clicks. From here, we can begin to understand your super and insurance needs and collect some details about your company. You ll need: General company details, such as a mailing address and an ABN. Details around any current insurance held in your default plan (if applicable). Debit bank account details (if you wish to set up a Direct Debit Facility)

9 2. The BT MySuper Lifestage Default Investment Option for your employees BT offers you and your employees access to an extensive range of Investment Options, managed by a variety of professional fund managers. These Investment Options cover all the main asset classes shares, property, fixed interest securities and cash. Each Investment Option has a different objective and level of risk and returns so your employees have maximum choice and flexibility. For more information on the Investment Options below and other details about what BT Super can offer you and your employees, please refer to the How we invest your money section of the PDS and Additional Information Booklet. BT MySuper Lifestage Investment Options BT s MySuper Lifestage Investment Option is backed by an award winning and experienced asset manager with a proven track record. We ve chosen a Lifestage investment approach, which is well-suited to those employees who want to leave it to us to manage their money. How does a Lifestage Fund work? When an employee invests in the BT MySuper Lifestage Investment Option, they ll be invested according to their decade of birth and our investment experts automatically adjust the asset mix throughout their life. When an employee is younger (and has more time to withstand ups and downs in their investment returns) their asset mix will be more growth orientated to target a higher return. Over time the fund will gradually shift to a more conservative asset mix. It generally does this by decreasing its allocation to growth assets and increasing its allocation to conservative assets. Example Joe is 49 years old (born in 1966) and invests in BT s MySuper Lifestage Investment Option. He will be automatically invested into the 1960 s Lifestage Investment Option. This investment option is designed for your employees where retirement is approaching. Therefore the asset mix is balanced between growth and conservative assets. Over time Joe s investment option will gradually shift to a more conservative asset mix as shown in the graph on the following page. This is done automatically, which means your employee does not have to be moved from one fund to another. MySuper Benefits for your employees BT is a pioneer of Lifestage super in Australia. BT has been successfully managing Lifestage funds for over seven years, while many other Australian super funds are new to this investment approach. A highly experienced investment team The BT MySuper Lifestage Investment Option in BT Super is actively managed by leading fund manager Advance Asset Management Limited (Advance).

11 3. Select insurance cover for your employees A quick how-to guide ` ` xx Choose Standard cover or tailored cover for Death and Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) cover for your employees Choose Salary Continuance Insurance (SCI) cover for your employees Transfer the Death, TPD or SCI cover from another plan or policy Where to find the forms Complete section 3A of the Employer Application form. Complete section 3A of the Employer Application form. Complete section 3B of the Employer Application form. The Employer Application form is available at the back of this brochure. For a flexible insurance arrangement that allows you to ensure that your employees have insurance cover, BT offers your business the following: Standard cover Death and TPD, or Tailored Death and TPD cover, and/or SCI cover. To meet its obligations the Trustee requires employers to offer their employees a minimum amount of cover on an opt-out basis. You can select either one unit of standard cover Death and TPD or an acceptable tailored cover design. Please see further information on the next page. Who provides the insurance? To help you receive competitive insurance rates and terms and conditions, BT Super provides insurance through a group policy (the Policy) with an external insurer, AIA Australia Limited ABN , AFSL (Insurer), located at 553 St Kilda Road, Melbourne, Victoria 3004 and contactable by phone on Insurance benefits By providing your employees with insurance cover through BT Super, they receive a number of very important benefits: Group insurance rates, which are generally cheaper than the same cover arranged under a personal policy The cost of cover is deducted from each member s super account Cover may be set up under an Automatic Acceptance arrangement, which means that your employees may not have to provide medical or other evidence in order to receive a certain level of cover, and Once accepted by the Insurer, an employee s cover will continue as long as they remain eligible for insurance and insurance fees (also referred to as premiums) are paid, which in some cases means automatic continuation of cover even after they leave their employment with you. The Insurer may decline to offer or renew cover. Payment of premiums Providing insurance cover for your employees requires minimal administration by you. Monthly premiums will be paid from each member s super account. You can, however, elect to reimburse the premiums for your employees by making additional monthly contributions in excess of your Super Guarantee contributions. Note that any additional contributions will be considered employer contributions and will count towards your employee s concessional contribution cap. bt.com.au 9

12 3. Select insurance cover for your employees (continued) Death and TPD cover options 1 Standard cover Standard cover is the default age based scale of Death and TPD cover that will apply to eligible members 1. It s designed to provide a simple, low cost, basic level of cover that increases or decreases depending upon a member s age. One unit of standard cover provides eligible members up to $300,000 of cover automatically, without the need for medical checks (please refer to the table of cover and premiums in the Additional Information Booklet Part 3 Insurance). Note: no adviser commission is payable on standard cover premiums. 2 Tailored cover You may specify a formula of insurance for different categories of employees (prescribing the type of insurance and amount of cover). If you specify a formula for cover, your employees may have that cover accepted under the Automatic Acceptance Limit (refer to page 11). The formula used to determine the amount of automatic cover is established on commencement of your plan, although it may be changed each year at the time of the annual review. A business partner or sole trader is eligible for insurance cover on the same terms and conditions as employees, provided they meet all the eligibility requirements (including working the required number of hours with the business participating in BT Super). Employees can also elect to increase their cover above the automatic cover amount if they wish, without your approval. This is subject to the increase being approved by the Insurer. Employees may decrease or cancel their cover without your consent. If a significant number of employees cancel their cover your Tailored cover may be replaced by Standard cover. Option Benefit 1 One unit of Standard cover Tailored cover options (available to plans of 20 or more members) 2 Age based units of cover for a fixed premium (minimum 2 units) 3 Multiple of Income (eg 4 Income) 4 Fixed dollar amount of cover (eg $250,000 for each member) 5 Fixed percentage of Income per annum for each year of service remaining to age 65 (calculated at entry and annually at each 1 July, and on certain other events) 3 No Insurance This option is only available if you can demonstrate you already have MySuper compliant Death and TPD insurance arrangements for your employees outside of superannuation. Salary Continuance Insurance (SCI) cover options You also have the flexibility to request the amount of SCI cover that will apply. This benefit will be paid up to a maximum of two years, five years or to age 65. SCI cover provides for a proportion of the employee s Income to be replaced if they are disabled temporarily. The maximum cover is 75% (plus up to 15% super contributions) of their Pre-disability Income or $30,000 per month benefit, whichever is lesser. Benefits paid to replace your super contributions will be remitted to the employee s BT Super account. You can also select whether a 30 day, 60 day or 90 day waiting period should apply. Calculation of cover The amount of cover is calculated on an employees commencement, on notification of certain changes to membership details (eg occupation) and at 1 July each year. For SCI, if (at the date of the disability) a member s Income is lower than the amount advised to us at the last review date or the date the member joined BT Super (whichever is later), the member s benefit will be adjusted to reflect the Income earned in the period of 12 consecutive months immediately before the disability. 1_ Plans with employees in Special Risk occupations are subject to individual consideration

13 In the event of a claim, if a member s annual wage or salary has increased and caused their SCI benefit amount to increase by more than 25% since the last annual review date, then the Insurer reserves the right to limit the increase in benefits to 25% above the member s SCI benefit amount at the last annual review date. However the Insurer will increase cover in excess of the 25% subject to the cover being underwritten and accepted by the Insurer. Any increased benefit is also subject to you having regularly updated your employees income at annual review. For Death and TPD or Death Only cover, the initial amount of cover will be based on the Income that you provide when an employee joins BT Super. For the following years, the amount of cover will be based upon the employee s Income at 1 July that you advise us as part of their annual review. Prior to 1 July each year, you may be required to provide updated Income information in respect of employees and to confirm certain member information. Automatic Acceptance of tailored cover Insurers normally require medical and other evidence to assess the risk of insuring each individual. However, if you decide to nominate cover for a group of employees (with the exception of those stated as excluded), Automatic Acceptance cover, up to the prescribed limit (the Automatic Acceptance Limits), may be available without the need for your employees to supply evidence of health or other information. To be eligible for Automatic Acceptance of cover, each of the following conditions must be met: Your super plan has been nominated as an employer default plan Your super plan has two or more eligible employees for Death and TPD or Death Only cover, or ten or more eligible employees for SCI You choose a benefit design approved by the Insurer You define employees eligibility conditions and insurance cover for each benefit category Note: Once you have defined your employees eligibility conditions and insurance cover for a benefit category, you and your employees are not able to select the amount of cover or elect the benefit category that your employees are to join. You complete and provide new employee details within 120 days of the employee s commencement of employment or on the plan commencement date (employees who join after this will have cover on a New Events basis. Please refer to the Additional Information Booklet Part 3 Insurance for details) The formula for calculating automatic insurance cover must be the same for all employees in each benefit category The benefits provided by each benefit category are broadly similar to ensure that the same Automatic Acceptance Limit can apply across the whole membership There must be no other group life insurance arrangement in place for your employees At commencement, eligible employees must be actively At Work or on approved leave such as annual leave or long service leave on the date they commence employment with the employer or on the date the employer joins BT Super (whichever is the later). If an employee was on restricted duties or modified hours due to sickness or injury, they ll not be considered to be At Work. Employees not At Work on the date cover is due to commence will receive New Events cover until such time as they have been At Work and performing their normal duties and hours for at least 30 consecutive days at which time they ll receive full cover Eligible employees must be under 70 for Death cover, age 67 for TPD cover, and age 65 for SCI cover The maximum number of eligible employees allowed to opt out of automatic cover is no more than 25% Automatic Acceptance cover isn t available for any additional cover where the employee elects to increase cover above their formula-driven cover. The Insurer reserves the right to vary any Automatic Acceptance Limits. The Insurer also reserves the right to apply Automatic Acceptance Limits and conditions which are different from those disclosed in this brochure. Plans with employees in Special Risk occupations are subject to individual consideration. Automatic Acceptance cover isn t available for spouse members. However, cover can be provided to spouses after being underwritten and accepted by the Insurer. bt.com.au 11

How do I set up the insurance for my plan? Designing an insurance benefit You can work with your BT Super Consultant or Financial Adviser to design the most suitable insurance plan for your employees by selecting one or more of the three types of cover for your plan. You also have the flexibility to have different insurance arrangements for different categories of employees. Refer to pages 8 to 10 of this brochure for more information on the plan design options available to you. BT Super also enables you to conveniently transfer your existing group insurance cover. Refer to the Takeover of insurance what we need section of this brochure to find out what is required. The following examples should be used as a guide only. The actual premiums may vary. Examples of how Tailored Cover insurance benefit designs may be applied Please note that the following example has been constructed to illustrate how three insurance benefit design formulae can be applied to a plan. It s not a real life example. As a result, it s not a substitute for financial advice or a formal quotation. The information provided in this example has been prepared without taking account of your objectives, financial situation or needs. Because of this you should, before acting on this information, consider its appropriateness having regard to your objectives, financial situations and needs. ABCD Pty Ltd is a manufacturing company with 24 employees as follows: 2 directors 8 administration staff, and 14 Qualified Electricians. For the purposes of this example, there will be three categories of insurance: Category 1 Directors Category 2 Administration staff, and Category 3 Qualified Electricians. For each insurance category, we ve selected the following benefit designs as examples: Category 1 Directors Death and TPD 4 x Income SCI 75% of Income, 90 day waiting period with a benefit up to age 65 Category 2 Administration staff Death and TPD 15% x Income x Years of Future Service (YFS) to age 65 SCI 75% of Income, 90 day waiting period with a benefit of five years Category 3 Qualified Electricians Death and TPD applicable benefit at the cost of $2.70 per week For a plan of this size, the Automatic Acceptance Limit (AAL) will be $600,000 for Death and TPD and $6,000 per month for SCI. This means that the lower of the relevant formula or the AAL will apply. For employees whose formula provides for a sum insured higher than the AAL, the benefit will be capped at the AAL

The policy committee will serve as an avenue for you and your employees to ask the Trustee for specific information and to lodge complaints or enquiries about the operation or management of your plan. It is also a requirement that the policy committee meet at least every 12 months. If a policy committee is required, as part of the ongoing service to you, the Trustee will facilitate the process of asking your employees to nominate and elect member representatives. An Employer s Guide to Policy Committees will be sent to you at the commencement of your plan. All active members of your super plan will also receive an Employee s Guide to Policy Committees which explains all aspects of how a policy committee works. Important information for sole traders, business partners or spouses of existing members Sole traders, business partners and spouses of existing members will need to complete the Spouse or Sole Trader and Business Partner application form if they intend to join the plan as a member.

19 Your super obligations BT is committed to helping you meet your super obligations and the super needs of your employees. This section provides general information about some of your responsibilities in relation to your employees super. It s intended as a brief guide only and you should, of course, seek independent professional tax advice that s specific to your circumstances. More detailed information about your super obligations can be found in the BT Super Additional Information Booklet. Things to consider when setting up your plan MySuper obligations Super Guarantee (SG) requirements What MySuper means for your business MySuper is a part of Stronger Super and from 1 January 2014, for those employees who have not chosen their own super fund, it will generally 1 be compulsory for you to direct their future Superannuation Guarantee (SG) contributions to a super fund which offers a MySuper product. BT s MySuper Lifestage Investment Option is a fully compliant MySuper product. We ll automatically direct the future super contributions for members who haven t made an investment choice into BT s MySuper Lifestage investment. What MySuper means for your employees MySuper is about offering a simple, cost effective default super product for your employees who prefer not to play an active role in their super. Your employees will have their super contributions directed to the BT MySuper Lifestage Investment Option, unless they choose otherwise. You re required to make super contributions for all eligible employees to the value of 9.5% (for the 2015/2016 financial year) of the employee s ordinary time earnings (OTE). Refer to the ATO website, ato.gov.au, for a definition of OTE and SG requirements. The OTE for an employee is subject to a maximum amount called the maximum super contribution base, which is $50,810 per quarter (for the 2015/2016 financial year). SG contributions for employees must be paid at least quarterly (by the 28th day following the end of the quarter ie 28 April, 28 July, 28 October and 28 January). If you don t make the required level of contributions for your employees by the relevant cut-off date each quarter you ll need to pay the Super Guarantee Charge (SGC). Please note that this amount is greater than the minimum super contribution and is also non tax-deductible. We recommend that you seek professional advice to ensure that you re meeting all your SG obligations. Tax File Numbers (TFNs) If an employee has quoted their TFN to you for employment purposes on or after 1 July 2007, you re required to give that TFN to the super fund to which you make contributions on behalf of that employee. Penalties may apply if you fail to do so. In addition: We are not permitted to accept member contributions if we do not hold the member s TFN and We are required to apply additional tax on employer contributions if we do not hold the member s TFN on 30 June of the financial year in which the contributions were made. Taxation of employer super contributions You can claim a tax deduction for the full amount of all contributions to a complying super fund on behalf of your eligible employees. Reportable employer super contributions (RESC) If you make super contributions under a salary sacrifice arrangement, or make extra super contributions for an employee (above SG), you may need to report these contributions on your employee s payment summary as an RESC. RESC are generally all employer contributions an employee could have chosen to receive as salary and wages rather than super contributions. Therefore, SG and mandated employer contributions are specifically excluded from RESC. You can find more detailed information about RESC on the ATO website at ato.gov.au. Employment termination payments (ETP) ETPs (certain lump sums paid by an employer on termination of an employee, such as amounts of redundancy payments above the tax free limits) can t be contributed to a super fund. bt.com.au 17
