Catholic Super Pension

Grow your nest egg, while receiving a regular income stream.

An ‘allocated’ pension is an easy way to access a tax effective regular income stream from your super when you retire.

An Allocated or Account-Based Pension as it is also known, is one of the most popular methods used by Australians to manage their income in retirement.

You'll benefit from tax savings and competitive investment options designed to make the most of your nest egg.

How does it work?

  • A super pension account is opened in your name.
  • The account works on an accumulation basis, which means that the value may go up or down depending on investment performance, payments made to you, and any fees and charges deducted from it.
  • You choose the amount and frequency of your income payments (subject to government minimum limits).
  • These payments will be credited to your bank account, building society or credit union.
  • Upon death, income payments can continue to be paid to your surviving spouse or the remaining balance can be paid in full to your estate or to beneficiaries nominated by you.
  • Once your account is exhausted, no further payments will be made.
  • You can also make lump sum withdrawals at any time.
