Nearly 3 in 5 retired people consider where their super will go

59% of retired people said that they were thinking of leaving some of their super to a beneficiary in last year’s Super Snapshot2.

Why nominating a beneficiary matters

Wills don’t typically cover super. So, it’s important to let your fund know where you’d like your savings to go when you pass away. AustralianSuper will follow relevant laws to distribute your balance.

Nominating who receives your super can be a big decision. You can check and change your nominations any time, but it’s a good idea to do so after big life events, such as marriage, separation, or the passing of a loved one. Get started on the AustralianSuper mobile app or by accessing your account online. If you prefer, you can also download a form to update any of the three types of beneficiary nominations available.

Check your beneficiary is up to date

Your super could live on after you, so it’s important to make it clear where you want your money to go.
