Why we keep our fees low

Performance and fees go hand in hand. No-one wants their investment returns being whittled down by high administration fees and costs. That’s why our FirstChoice super products have one of the lowest admin fees in the market.

 

FirstChoice Wholesale Personal Super has an average admin fee of just 0.2% p.a. on a super balance of $50,000, compared to the super fund average of 0.46%.^

 

Keeping our fees low means you have more money in your super – giving you greater value and helping you build your retirement savings faster.

 

Every fee and cost we charge is listed in our Product Disclosure Statements

Everyone deserves better than average.

Your super shouldn't be average either.

Our passion for performance and service

While we’re laser focused on providing strong long-term performance for our members, it’s equally important to us that every member has positive interactions with the CFS team and can rely on us whenever they need our help. We work hard to try and resolve complaints when raised directly with us, and this has resulted in less of our members having to escalate their complaint to the Australian Financial Complaints Authority (AFCA).​

 

CFS has some of the lowest level of member complaints raised at AFCA compared to our competitors, which demonstrates our commitment to creating positive experiences and meeting our members’ needs.​

Take a long-term view

Super is a long-term investment. Depending on when you intend to retire, you might have your money invested for 20 years or more. That’s a lot of investment market cycles.

 

When you’re comparing products and investment options, we always recommend taking a long-term view because you can’t get the full picture on short-term results alone. Take a look at how the option performed over one, three and five years – and even longer if possible. That will give you a more rounded view of the ability of the option and its investment manager to perform in various market conditions. But keep in mind that investment returns aren’t guaranteed and past performance is no indication of future performance.  

 

Use our performance tool to check the long-term performance of every investment option for our super, pension and investment products. 

Strong performance. Expert service. Consistently awarded.
