1 Since inception to 30 June 2024. Our Growth (MySuper) investment option has delivered an average annual return of 8.87%. Investment performance is based on the crediting rate, which is the return minus investment fees, taxes and until 31 January 2020, the percentage-based administration fee. Excludes fees and costs that are deducted directly from members' accounts.
Media Super merged with Cbus on 9 April 2022 and as a result, pre-existing Media Super investment options were closed and Media Super members were transferred to equivalent Media Super branded investment options under United Super Pty Ltd. The historical performance displayed prior to this date relates to Cbus investment options and does not incorporate the performance of Media Super. Media Super members received a Successor Fund Transfer Exit Statement prior to merging with Cbus, detailing the performance of their Media Super investment options. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
2 Insurance Loyalty Rebate eligibility
We're giving eligible* long-term members a loyalty rebate on Death, Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) and Income Protection (IP) cover premiums. How it works:
From 28 September 2024, you’ll be eligible for a rebate on your future insurance premiums if:
- You've held insurance for any period of time
- You first took out the insurance cover 10+ years ago
The rebate works like this:
- 2% of insurance premiums if your cover was first activated 10 – 19 years ago
- 4% of insurance premiums if your cover was first activated 20+ years ago
If you were a Media Super member before merging with Cbus Super on 9 April 2022, we’ll use your original join date to determine eligibility.
