Historical performance results
In the long term, one of the most significant factors affecting your retirement benefit will be the investment performance after costs, fees and taxes are deducted. When you're looking at a super fund you should check what sort of performance the fund has achieved and whether you have a choice of investment options.
You should also examine the investment objectives of the fund or investment option you will be investing in, both to assess the level of risk involved and to establish whether they have been meeting their goals. However, remember that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
Unit prices
From 4pm 21 October 2021, unit prices will be calculated at the close of business (COB) every business day* and applied to accounts two business days later on a continuous daily cycle. For example, the unit price calculated at COB on Monday will be applied to investment options (and your account) on Wednesday.
Please note, unit prices calculated Thursday will apply from the immediate Saturday and will continue to apply Sunday and Monday until Friday’s valuation is applied Tuesday.
*Weekends and weekdays that fall on a National public holiday and the Queen’s birthday (VIC/NSW) when the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX) is closed are non-business days.
