UniSuper defined benefits (including defined benefit pensions) are not guaranteed and are subject to the risk that the pool of assets supporting them may not be sufficient to meet all of UniSuper’s defined benefit obligations. In the event of prolonged underfunding, clause 34 of UniSuper’s trust deed provides a mechanism for defined benefits to be reduced on a fair and equitable basis. A clause 34 monitoring period was recently concluded and it was resolved to reduce the defined benefit formula from 1 January 2015 by changing the way Benefit Salary is determined as it applies to service on and after 1 January 2015. This change does not affect defined benefits or pensions that become payable before 1 January 2015. There are three further clause 34 monitoring periods in place, concluding on 30 June 2015, 30 June 2016 and 30 June 2017.

What we will cover today Gen Y – the financial challenge Salary sacrificing to boost your super Understanding risk Investing inside versus outside of super Insurance and super

Gen Y – the financial challenge HECS - HELP Where does saving for retirement fit in? HOUSE DEPOSIT HOLIDAY CREDIT CARD BUY CAR RENT car

Salary sacrificing to boost your super Salary Sacrifice Is a before-tax (concessional) contribution to superannuation Example: Heather is considering salary sacrificing $10,000 Note: Concessional contributions limits apply HECS/HELP repayment obligations are not reduced by salary sacrificing Superannuation Account If Salary Sacrificed (taxed at 15%) If taken as income (fully taxable e.g. at 34.5%) $10,000 of Salary

Salary sacrificing to boost your super The earlier you start, the smaller the steps . . . Scenario 1 – $3,000 a year from age 30 until age 65 (total contributions of $105,000) Scenario 2 – $6,000 a year from age 45 until age 65 (total contributions of $120,000) The benefit of compound interest Scenario 1 ends up being more than $136,000 better off. $342,666 (Scenario 1) $206,133 (Scenario 2) Chart shows that small contributions over a long period harness the effects of compounding – and super is a long term investment! This is particularly important as the government has put in place limits on how much you can contribute in any one year – so don’t wait until you are close to retirement. Of course, you do need to understand that you cannot access your super monies until you retire. Age Past performance is not an indicator of future performance. Balances do not take into consideration fees and taxes or the possibility of negative returns. Based on an investment return of 6.87% p.a., which is reinvested over 35 years for Scenario 1 and 20 years for Scenario 2. 6

Investment options in super have different levels of risk

Example of UniSuper’s investment options risk/return profiles Low Expected risk High Potential return Australian Shares International Shares High Growth Socially Responsible High Growth The higher the potential return, the higher the potential risk . . . Growth Balanced Socially Responsible Balanced Global Environmental Opportunities Australian Equity Income Global Companies in Asia Conservative Balanced Listed Property Capital Stable Defensive assets Growth assets Single-asset class options Australian Bond Diversified Credit Income Cash This is a conceptual chart showing the risk/return trade offs where ‘risk’ means volatility as opposed to the risk of a negative return

What is your attitude to risk? Everybody is different . . . Do daily share market fluctuations keep you awake at night? Are you able to tolerate occasional market reversals and slumps for potential long-term rewards? Do you seek investments with higher labour standards, environmental, social and ethical considerations? The best investment options for you: Offer the level of risk you are comfortable with Suit your circumstances and retirement saving goals Remember to consider . . . Your Age When you expect to access your funds The first step to understanding how our investments perform is the concept of Risk & Return. Return is comprised of income and growth. Consider cash we have the bank, we have the potential to receive income by way of interest, but the value of the amount we invested will not change so there is no growth. A Fixed Interest investment, has the potential for income by way of the interest we receive, and growth occurs when we sell the investment before it matures and we receive more for it then we paid. If we think of a property, we have the potential to receive income by way of rent and growth by way of an increase in the price of the property. If we think of a share, we have the potential to receive income by way of dividends and growth by way of an increase in the price of the share. The more growth we have the potential to receive the more risk is that the value of the funds won’t increase but may decrease. Risk isn’t necessarily a ‘bad guy’ – but it works hand in hand with the returns that we receive. If we do not want to see the value of our funds move down at all in the short then we need to invest in the area where returns will be low, on the flip side if we are comfortable with some ups and downs in the value of our funds then we can move up the scale to the level that we are comfortable. Risk includes: the chance of loss on an investment achieving a return that is less than expected, and underperforming an index or benchmark. APRA Superannuation Circular No. II.D.1

Your investment risk tolerance is important, but remember: Gen Y’s have a long investment time horizon (years to retirement) Allows you to absorb periods of market downturns and volatility Allows a higher weighting to growth style assets (e.g. shares) History shows that over the long term, growth assets outperform defensive assets (e.g. cash and bonds) With regular contributions, when markets are down you are able to purchase these assets cheaply (dollar cost averaging) Avoid focussing on short-term performance

Investing inside versus outside of super

Investing inside versus outside of super Inside Superannuation Outside Superannuation Tax on earnings (Accumulation) Maximum of 15%* At marginal rate (up to 47%)* Tax on assessable capital gains (Accumulation) 10% if asset is held for at least 12 months (15% where asset is held for under 12 months) Tax on earnings & assessable capital gains (Pension) Tax Free Contribution incentives Pre-tax contributions allowed. Government contribution incentives available No pre-tax contributions & few (if any) Government contribution incentives Minimum contribution No minimum contribution to an accumulation account Some investments have minimum investment amounts * Further reduced by any imputation/franking credits received

Investing inside versus outside of super Inside Superannuation Outside Superannuation Access to investments Pooled funds allow access to investments generally inaccessible for individual investors (e.g. wholesale funds) Limited access to wholesale funds unless part of a pooled investment fund Estate Planning Benefits can be directed to nominated beneficiaries without the need to go through the estate Generally, benefits must go through the estate Access to funds Generally no access to funds until you reach preservation age (age 60 if born after 30 June 1964) Generally, you can access funds at any time unless the product limits access Contributions Caps Strict limits on how much you can contribute each year Generally no limits on how much you can contribute

Insurance and super Super funds typically have three types of insurance for members: Death cover (also known as life insurance) Your beneficiaries receive a benefit if you die Total and permanent disability (TPD) cover You receive a benefit if you become seriously disabled and are unlikely to ever work again Income protection (IP) cover You receive an income stream for a specified period if you can't work due to temporary disability or illness Your employer's default fund must offer a minimum level of life insurance, depending on your age. You may choose to increase, decrease, or cancel your default insurance cover.

Review your insurance cover whenever your circumstances change marriage or new partnership birth of children increase level of debt relationship breakdown change employment take extended leave from work change in salary Life Events Option is a new feature of Optional death & disablement cover. You need to apply within 90 days of these events occurring to take advantage of the opportunity to increase your cover.
