Nominating a beneficiary ensures that your super, and any insurance held, is paid to the right person if something happens to you.

A non-binding nomination can be made by simply logging in to your account. This type of nomination guides the Trustee on who you would prefer to receive your money.

A binding nomination locks in your choice for the next three years (we’ll remind you to renew it). It takes a little more time, as you need to complete a form, sign it and have it witnessed. This ensures the Trustee acts according to the instructions you provide on the form (provided the nomination is valid).
