For the third year running, Local Government Super’s Accumulation Scheme has been awarded a five-star rating for outstanding value from CANSTAR. This is the highest rating granted by the independent, specialist researcher.
Local Government Super was one of just five funds to be awarded the five-star rating for outstanding value across all member profiles, including the new Wealth Accumulator profile. Overall Local Government Super was one of only ten super funds in total to receive the fivestar rating.
Chief Executive Officer, Peter Lambert, said: “We are pleased to again be recognised for consistently delivering truly outstanding value to our members.
“Our mission has always been to provide great service and achieve strong sustainable investment returns for our members and this rating is further endorsement that we’re on the right track with our products and services.
“Members of Local Government Super can be confident that we’ll be working just as hard over the next twelve months to maintain our five-star rating.”
The LGS Accumulation Scheme was particularly recognised for:
- a wide range of investment choice
- access to good quality scaled and comprehensive financial advice
- available death, and total and permanent disablement insurance cover.
CANSTAR evaluated the accumulation stage of 61 super funds available for personal super investment, taking into account the annual cost of the fund and fund features such as ease of member account access, number of investment options offered, and access to voluntary insurance, financial advice and strategy services within the fund.
