Super SA - Triple S Scheme

Originally established in 1927 as The South Australian Superannuation Fund, Super SA is now the largest super scheme in South Australia responsible for managing the super and retirement savings of current and former SA public sector employees. The Triple S scheme is classified as an untaxed fund catering to actively working members. Super SA Triple S offers a range of 8 investment options to choose from, providing members with access to 6 Diversified options, a Cash option and a Socially Responsible option for the ethical investor. The Balanced option outperformed the SuperRatings Index over each time period assessed to 30 June 2018; however, care should be taken when comparing performance figures as all returns displayed are untaxed. Fees are competitive and lower than the industry average across all account balances assessed. Members are entitled to 1 free investment switch per financial year, while no exit fee applies. Eligible members are automatically provided with standard Death and Total & Permanent Disablement (TPD) cover and Income Protection (IP) cover upon joining the fund. Income Protection is available up to a maximum of 75% of notional salary plus a Contribution Replacement Benefit, with a 2-year benefit payment period following a 30 or 90 day waiting period. Voluntary Death Only insurance is only available to Triple S Spouse members. Members have access to comprehensive financial planning services provided through Industry Fund Services on a fee-for-service basis. The fund's website includes a Knowledge Centre where members can access fact sheets, calculators, vodcasts and news updates. The online Member Portal allows members to update their details, view account information and switch investment options.
