Financial advice

We've developed a range of education materials designed to provide you with the tools you need to understand how super works.

We hold regular workshops and Media Super representatives are available for workplace visits or to meet you individually.

Our Relationship Managers are available to help you with general superannuation questions. Call us on 1800 640 886 and ask to speak to a manager in your area.

You may decide that you need some personal financial advice relating to your finances and investments.

As a Media Super member, you have access to financial planners who work on a fee-for-service basis - they are not paid commissions. Many financial planners operate under commission-based remuneration systems that may influence the advice you receive. Choosing a fee-for-service financial planner gives you confidence that the advice you receive is in your best interests, not the planner's.

Industry Fund Financial Planning (IFFP) can provide you with financial planning advice regarding your super. This service can help you navigate all of your super decisions, including:

• Which investment option is right for me?
• How much can I salary sacrifice?
• I'm retiring soon - what should I do with my super?
• How much tax will I pay if I take my super as a lump sum vs a pension in retirement?
• How can I use my super to maximise the Government Age Pension?
• I've heard you can keep working and access your super through a transition to retirement pension if you're aged over 55. Does this apply to me?
• How much insurance cover should I have?

Industry Fund Financial Planning can also offer financial advice on issues other than super - including full financial plans. The financial planners operate on a fee-for-service basis. This means you know how much you will pay and what you will get up front. No hidden charges, no commissions and no ongoing fees.
