Thinking about retiring?

Guild has introduced GuildPension to help those headed towards retirement make the most of their super savings.

If you've turned 55 and would like to keep working but start drawing on your super, you can by starting a transition to retirement pension account.

The transition to retirement rules can help you save tax and receive regular payments from your super, before you retire.

Download our fact sheet More Options With Transition To Retirement for more information on how this strategy may benefit you.

Please note that once you have started a pension through GuildPension you cannot put extra funds into your pension account. Any new investments made into GuildPension are subject to the minimum requirements and will be used to open up a new pension account from which another income stream will start to be paid.

Please read the Product Disclosure Statement for more information about GuildPension.
