2. How super works
Most people get employer super contributions
Super helps you save for retirement and is compulsory for most employed Australians. That’s why
the government takes less tax from super than other types of investments. Most people receive
super contributions from their employer and can choose the super fund these payments are made to.
The amount your employer must contribute is usually at least 11% of your regular pay (which doesn’t
include overtime or some allowances). There are also other ways to grow your super, such as personal
contributions, government co-contributions and salary sacrifice. See our How super works fact sheet for
more details.

You can build your account with extra contributions


You can get more super by putting in extra money (see page 9 for limits). There are two ways:
1. From your before-tax salary: This could reduce your tax.
2. From your after-tax salary: The government could match money paid in with a co-contribution of
up to $500 if you’re a low to middle income earner.

Combine your super accounts to save


Moving jobs may mean you have several super accounts, paying fees on each of them. You can easily
search for and combine your super through your online Cbus Super account. Or complete the attached
Combine your super into Cbus Super form. To learn more about finding and combining your super visit
cbussuper.com.au/consolidate.

Super’s usually for your retirement


By law, you will generally need to reach your preservation age (age 60 if you were born from 1 July 1964),
or age 65 to access your super savings. Early access is possible under severe financial hardship, terminal
illness, permanent incapacity or on compassionate grounds.

You can stay with Cbus Super when you change jobs
If you don’t choose a fund when starting a new job, your boss may pay your super into your ‘stapled
fund’ as decided by the ATO. If you have more than one fund, this may not be Cbus Super and may not
be right for you. To stick with Cbus Super, complete the I want my super paid into Cbus Super form at
cbussuper.com.au/cs/choose-cbus and give it to your new boss.

You can also stay with Cbus Super when you finish work
After age 60 you can turn your super into regular, tax-free payments with a Cbus Super Income Stream
account. This means you can stay with Cbus Super as you transition into retirement and after you retire.

Keep track of your super


Unless you’ve told us you want to stay with Cbus Super, your account will move to the Australian
Taxation Office (ATO) and any Cbus Super insurance and other benefits will stop if:
■ we can’t contact you for a while (so be sure to keep your details up to date)
■ there’s limited activity on your account (such as no contributions) for 16 months, you don’t meet a
condition of release, your account doesn’t have insurance and its balance is less than $6,000.

You should read the important information about how super works before making a decision.
Go to cbussuper.com.au/superworks. The material relating to how super works may change
between the time when you read this statement and the day when you acquire the product.

4. Risks of super
All investing has risk. Understanding risk helps you to make better
investment decisions.
We invest your super in different asset classes and each has a different level of risk and expected return.
Shares and some alternative investments can have high returns, but also more risk of a negative return
or loss in the short term. Cash and fixed interest investments generally have more stable but lower
long-term returns.
When investing in super (including Cbus Super) it’s important to consider:
■ the value of your investment can change as returns aren’t guaranteed and you may lose some of
your money
■ the level of investment returns can vary – future returns can be different to past returns
■ contributions and investment returns may not grow your super enough to fully support you when
you retire and your savings might not last long enough, and
■ super laws may change in the future.
So, when you come to choose investment options, it’s important to think about:
■ how old you are now and how long you plan to invest – to retirement or longer
■ other investments you have outside super, such as savings, property or shares, and
■ how much risk you want to take to achieve the return you want.

5. How we invest your money


You can choose from a range of investment options:
Pre-mixed options: DIY options: Cbus Self Managed
■ High Growth ■ Overseas Shares For even more control, you
■ Growth Plus ■ Australian Shares can choose from a range of
■ Growth (MySuper)* ■ Property Australian shares, exchange

options (conditions and extra

costs apply).

We consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors when investing across our whole
portfolio. Visit cbussuper.com.au/esg for more information on responsible investment.

Growth (MySuper) is designed to suit most members


We’ll invest your super in Growth (MySuper)* until you make a choice. This option suits people
who can live with occasional negative returns but want long-term returns to be higher than inflation.
It invests in a range of assets including shares, property, infrastructure and cash.

Investment options may change as our investment strategy changes. We’ll contact you or post
updates at cbussuper.com.au about any significant changes.

You can change investments through your online account or by completing an Investment
choice form. The right investment choice for you will depend on its likely return, the amount
of risk you’re happy to take to achieve it, and how long until you retire.

You should read the important information about our investment options and how we invest
your money before making a decision. Go to cbussuper.com.au/pds to read the Investment
handbook and the Cbus Self Managed investment guide. The material relating to our
investment options may change between the time when you read this statement and the
day when you acquire the product. Always visit our website for the latest information.

6. Fees and costs
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. You or your employer, as applicable, may be able
to negotiate to pay lower fees.* Ask the fund or your financial adviser.
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) Moneysmart website
(moneysmart.gov.au) has a superannuation calculator to help you check out different fee options.
* This text is legally required, but as Cbus Super only charges fees to cover costs and not to make a profit our fees
can’t be negotiated.
Fees and costs summary
This table shows fees and costs for the Growth (MySuper) option and can be used to compare costs
between different superannuation products. Fees may be deducted directly from your account or from

income year, certain fees and costs charged to you in relation to administration and investment are capped at 3%
of the account balance. Any amount charged in excess of that cap must be refunded.

performance fees for the five years to 30 June 2023.

You should read the important information about fees and costs before making a decision.
Go to cbussuper.com.au/fees. The information on fees and costs may change between the
time when you read this statement and the day when you acquire the product.

7. How super is taxed


Super is a more tax-effective way for most people to save for retirement.
Although you don’t have to, you should give us your tax file number or you’ll pay extra tax and
won’t be able to make after-tax contributions. We’re authorised to collect, use and disclose your
TFN under the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993. Your TFN may be shared with
another super provider when your benefits are being transferred unless you request in writing
not to. See cbussuper.com.au/tfn for details.

Tax on money put in


Tax on money put into super is worked out on the amount and if it’s paid from your before or after-tax
income (and also sometimes, your total income). Tax is usually deducted from your account after the
money has gone in. We then pay the tax to the Australian Taxation Office.
8 | Set up Cbus Corporate Super
Limits on how much you can put into super (for the 2023/24 financial year)
Before-tax (concessional) 15%* tax on amounts up to $27,500 a year. Amounts above this limit
such as employer and salary are added to your assessable income and taxed at your marginal rate.
sacrifice contributions If the excess concessional contributions are not withdrawn, they will
count toward your non-concessional contribution cap.
If your total super balance across all accounts is under $500,000
at the end of the previous financial year, you can use any unused
concessional contribution cap amounts on a rolling five-year basis.
After-tax No tax on amounts up to $110,000 a year.
(non-concessional) If you’re under age 75, you may be able to contribute $330,000 in
such as personal or voluntary any three-year period. Contributions more than this limit may be
contributions where no tax taxed at 47% if not withdrawn (being 45% marginal tax rate plus 2%
deduction has been claimed Medicare levy).
Your total super balance may affect these after-tax limits.
*
An additional 15% tax is levied on before-tax contributions that – when combined with your income – are
greater than $250,000.
You can apply to claim a tax deduction for after-tax contributions you make. Contributions you claim as a
tax deduction are treated as concessional contributions, so they’re taxed at 15% and contribute to your
before-tax (concessional) contributions cap. Think about what this tax treatment could mean for you.
Before you apply to claim the tax deduction you need to make sure you meet the eligibility criteria
and notify us of your intent to claim it using our Claim a tax deduction for personal contributions to super
form. From age 67 you’ll also need to meet the work test (or exemption criteria) and your ability to
contribute stops around a month after your 75th birthday. For details read the How super is taxed fact
sheet at cbussuper.com.au/tax.

There are limits on how much you can contribute to your super (contribution caps). If you
contribute more than these limits you may pay extra tax.

Tax on lump sum withdrawals


Age 60 or over: withdrawals are generally tax free. Under age 60: tax is deducted from withdrawals
before we pay them to you as follows.

Component Tax if you’re under 60


Tax free No tax payable.
Taxable Less than preservation age: taxed at a maximum of 20%.†
Between preservation age and 59: the first $235,000 ‡ is generally
tax free and the balance is taxed at a maximum of 15%.†

Plus Medicare levy. ‡
Low rate cap for 2023/24.

Tax on investment earnings


Investment earnings on your super are generally taxed at up to 15% (the actual rate may be lower due
to certain tax credits and rebates available). This tax is deducted from the crediting rate that applies
to your super before the earnings are added to your account.
You should read the important information about how super is taxed before making a decision.
Go to cbussuper.com.au/tax or ato.gov.au. The material relating to how super is taxed may change
between the time when you read this statement and the day when you acquire the product.

8. Insurance in your super
Cover you can count on
At Cbus Super, our size means we can get a better deal for our members, with insurance built for your
industry and premiums paid from your super, not your salary. Most members get cover automatically,
with no health checks and no hassle. Plus you can change your cover to suit your needs.
Your employer selects your automatic cover
Your employer selects the type and amount of cover you can get through Cbus Corporate Super.
If you’re eligible, you can be covered for:

Your life Your income


Death Terminal Total and permanent Income
illness disablement (TPD) protection (IP)

Automatic Automatic Automatic Automatic

if you die diagnosed as disabled by injury or can’t work†
terminally ill* illness and unlikely
to ever work again†

*
With a life expectancy of 24 months or less from when you were diagnosed. † Conditions apply.
The cover available will depend on your age, your occupation category (see opposite) and in many cases
your salary. Your automatic cover won’t start until your account balance reaches $6,000 (and you’ve
turned 25), unless you tell us you want cover earlier. Select this option when you complete the Set up
your Cbus Corporate Super account form or anytime at cbussuper.com.au/want-cover.
If you elect to receive cover or your account balance reaches $6,000 (and you’ve turned 25), if eligible, you’ll
be covered under the insurance benefit design your employer has chosen from the following options:

Death and TPD How much automatic IP design How much automatic

Multiple of Percentage 85% of your salary (includes a

If you’re in the light manual occupation category any automatic IP cover you receive will have a 2-year payment
period, but you can apply to change it to 5 years – learn how to change your cover on page 14.

10 | Set up Cbus Corporate Super


When automatic cover starts
If you elect to receive automatic cover (regardless of your account balance or age) or your account
balance reaches $6,000 (and you’ve turned 25), your cover will start when an on-time compulsory super
payment is received into your Corporate Super account. Your cover may be limited depending on when
you tell us you want it or when the payment is received. We’ll write to you to confirm when your cover
starts. See the Corporate Super insurance guide for further information.
Details of your employer’s chosen insurance design will be in the welcome pack we send you once
you’ve joined. If you’re not sure, just give us a call.
Limits on your automatic cover
Limits apply to how much cover you can get automatically and depend on your employer. If your cover is
capped at the limit, you can apply for more – see page 14 for details. See your Corporate Super insurance
fact sheet for your automatic cover limits.
Your cover may change in line with your salary
If your employer tells us your salary has changed, any salary-based cover you have can change too, up to
certain limits. For details, see your Corporate Super insurance fact sheet. Any fixed cover you have won’t
be affected by changes to your salary.
Cover for the work you do
Your occupation category affects how much you pay for your cover, so it’s important you’re in the right
category for the work you do. When you join, you’ll be given the occupation category your employer
selected for you, or the light manual category, which is the default category, if your employer didn’t
make a choice. The cost of cover in the light manual category is higher than for other categories.
If you’re eligible for a different occupation category, you can change it when you join, log into your
account or complete an Application to change occupation category – Death and TPD form, available at
cbussuper.com.au/forms.
We’ll check your occupation category if you make a claim, and any insurance payment may be reduced if you
weren’t eligible for the category you selected. So contact us if you’re not sure which category applies to you.

reaches $6,000 (and you’ve turned 25), unless you tell us you want it. Simply make your election on the
Set up your Cbus Corporate Super account form or anytime at cbussuper.com.au/want-cover.
If you had insurance above the automatic cover you’re eligible for under your Corporate Super
insurance design, you’ll also receive fixed cover equal to any additional death or TPD cover you had
under your previous membership (rounded up to the next $1,000).
You’ll also get IP cover automatically if it’s part of your insurance design and you qualify for it. If you had
IP cover with a 30-day waiting period or a 5-year payment period under your previous membership,
you’ll keep the same waiting period or payment period under Corporate Super. Otherwise you’ll have
the waiting period and payment period that your employer selected for your insurance design.
If you’d previously cancelled your insurance, you won’t automatically get cover when you join
Corporate Super, but you can apply for it. Find out how to change your cover on page 14.

How much does it cost?


How much you’ll pay for your cover depends on your age, occupation category, your employer’s risk
rating, and what type of cover you have.
The Corporate Super insurance fact sheet in your welcome pack explains how your cover is worked out,
including limits that may apply.
Check the Corporate Super insurance guide to work out the cost of your cover, or you can always check
by logging into your account at cbussuper.com.au/login or calling us. The insurance guide will also
show you how much a different amount of cover would cost and how the cost of your cover can change
as you get older or if your occupation category, salary or employer risk rating changes.

Change your cover to suit you
If automatic cover isn’t right for you, it’s easy to tailor it to your needs. You can:
■ increase or reduce your death or TPD cover
■ apply to change your occupation category
■ increase your IP cover up to 85% of your salary (if your cover was capped at less than this), or choose
a different waiting period or payment period, or
■ apply for IP cover if you’re eligible for it but it’s not part of your employer’s insurance design.
Any extra death or TPD cover you receive above the maximum for your insurance design will be fixed cover.
If you reduce your cover, any salary-based death and TPD cover you have will also become fixed cover.
If you don’t want cover or already have insurance elsewhere, you can cancel some or all of your cover
whenever you like. But if you change your mind and want cover later, you’ll need to apply for it and
provide information about your health for our insurer to consider. To simply cancel your cover, you can
call us on 1300 361 784.

How to change your cover


To change your occupation category, increase, reduce or cancel your cover, complete
a Change my insurance: Corporate Super form. You can also apply to transfer your death
and TPD cover from another super fund or insurance policy – complete an Application to
transfer existing insurance cover form.
Find these forms at cbussuper.com.au/forms or call us for copies.

What happens if you change jobs?


If you stop working for your Corporate Super employer, you’ll automatically move to Cbus Industry
Super and your insurance will change. We’ll write to you if this happens to explain the changes to your
membership and insurance. See the Corporate Super insurance guide for details or call us.

Keep your cover, even when life changes


Your death and TPD insurance cover will stop if your account doesn’t receive a contribution or a roll in
for 16 months (i.e. your account becomes inactive) and you haven’t elected to keep your cover.
We can keep you covered – even if you’re on extended unpaid leave – if you tell us you want to keep your
cover when you complete the enclosed Set up your Cbus Corporate Super account form.
You can change your mind and cancel or reduce your cover at any time. Your cover could also stop for other
reasons too, such as when you reach a certain age or don’t have enough money in your account to pay for
it. Different rules apply to any IP cover you have – see the Corporate Super insurance guide for details.

The cost of cover will come out of your account unless you cancel it (or it stops for another
reason). When deciding what cover is right for you – now and in the future – think about the
benefits of being covered and the impact of insurance costs on your retirement savings.

You should read the important information about insurance in your super before making
a decision, including the amount and costs of cover, when cover stops and starts,
changing your cover, making a claim, and any other terms and conditions of Cbus Super’s
insurance policies. For more information, read the Corporate Super insurance guide at
cbussuper.com.au/cs-cover and the Corporate Super insurance fact sheet in your welcome
pack, or call us for copies. The material relating to insurance in your super may change
between the time when you read this statement and the day when you acquire the product.

It's easier than ever to sort out your super

where it belongs: in your super account.

Insurance for your industry. With more than one super fund, you could be paying for more than one
insurance policy. And other super funds may not cover high-risk working conditions such as working from heights,
underground or in confined spaces.

average of 8.89% each year for the past 39 years.*
