THINGS TO CONSIDER WHEN INVESTING Before we delve into the details of the NGS Self-Managed options available, it s important to understand how your particular circumstances affect the suitability of which investment option is best for you. What investments do you have outside of super? The answer to this may influence how much you need to save and the type of assets you invest in. You can diversify your retirement savings by investing in a broad range of asset classes. How old are you now and when do you plan to retire? When you plan to retire can have an influence on the level of risk you are prepared to accept. If you are younger, you may decide to pursue higher longterm returns and be prepared to accept the occasional negative return in the short term because you have time on your side. If you are close to retirement however, you may be concerned about a market downturn just before you retire and may prefer the lower risk profile of a more conservative investment strategy. How long will you be retired for? Naturally, this is impossible to pinpoint exactly, but the longer you are retired, the more money you will need. It will be influenced by the age at which you begin your retirement. This may mean increasing the amount you contribute to super or, depending on your risk tolerance, changing to a more aggressive strategy to potentially gain a higher balance over the longer term. What is your objective? In general, the majority of members have as an objective to provide for a comfortable retirement through building their super savings. However, the way this is achieved may change with time and your tolerance to risk. If you are just starting out, you are likely to be looking to grow your super and your objective might be to accumulate a healthy balance for retirement. As you approach retirement, your objective may change to maintaining the balance you have accumulated, with the aim of avoiding significant capital losses. How much control do you want over your super? With NGS Super you can choose the level of choice and control you want over your Accumulation, Transition to retirement or Income accounts. Whether you invest in a single option or combination of options, there s an investment strategy suitable for your needs and lifestyle objectives. Level of choice and control None Select from our pre-mixed choices and leave the rest to us Build your own strategy by selecting from our range of sector-specific options Do-it-yourself super your choice your way, easy and hassle-free Provides direct control over your super. This option is only for members who will accept responsibility for their own investment decisions and may not be suitable if you do not want a high level of involvement with investing your super or pension. Investment options Default If you don t want to make a choice, your account will be invested in the default investment option. NGS Super s Diversified (MySuper) is the default option for the Accumulation and Transition to retirement accounts. For the NGS Income account, Moderate Growth is the default option.

This is suitable if you wish to choose your investment sectors but not your individual shares or term deposits.

You should also be aware of factors that can impact certain types of direct investments, such as: short-term share price fluctuations trading and trying to time the markets making short-term decisions lack of diversification. Please remember that super is a long-term investment and short-term performance doesn t always give you a complete picture of long-term performance.

As a member of NGS Super you have the ability to discuss your investment options and receive advice where required.

Once you have purchased a term deposit, you can elect to have it automatically rollover to a new term with the same provider, for your principal amount only or including interest earned from the maturing deposit. Where you have made an election to rollover at maturity, the election will continue to apply until the maturity election is modified to cash out.

Transferring from super to pension If you are an existing NGS Accumulation account member using NGS Self-Managed direct investments and you apply for an NGS Transition to retirement or Income account, your direct investments cannot be transferred directly 8 from your Accumulation account to your new Transition to retirement or Income account. You would first need to: sell your current investments (or allow term deposits to mature) and await proceeds to be credited to your NGS Self-Managed cash account, and then await transfer to your current NGS Accumulation or Transition to retirement account pre-mixed or sector-specific options before being able to purchase direct investments again, after you have commenced your NGS Transition to retirement or Income account. The same principle applies to transfers back from an NGS Income or Transition to retirement account to an NGS Accumulation account. Tax With all NGS Self-Managed direct investments being made via NGS Super, you benefit from: concessional maximum 15% tax applying to Accumulation and Transition to retirement account investment earnings no tax applying to Income account investment earnings. Capital Gains Tax If you realise a capital gain during the financial year, NGS Super will adjust your accounts and tax position on the disposal that gave rise to the capital gain. Capital Gains Tax (CGT) on shares and ETFs is 15% on Accumulation and Transition to retirement account investments for those assets held for less than 12 months and 10% for assets held for more than 12 months. No tax applies to Income accounts. Capital gains tax on shares and ETFs Accumulation account Transition to retirement account Held for less than 12 months 15% 15% Nil Held for more than 12 months 10% 10% Nil Income account Franking credits and annual taxation adjustments Franking credits benefit both Accumulation, Transition to retirement and Income account holders. Any credits applicable (also referred to as imputation credits), which allow companies to pass on a credit for taxes that have already been paid on profits, are processed as part of end of financial year processing (along with any other related tax adjustments). These are expected to occur by November each year. To receive any applicable credits you must be an NGS Super member when the end of financial year processing occurs. If you close your NGS Self Managed account, any credits will be allocated between your current NGS Accumulation, Transition to retirement or Income account pre-mixed or sector-specific options. If you are no longer an NGS Accumulation, Transition to retirement or Income account member, you will lose any applicable credits and these will be added to the Fund s reserve. Other information Are my NGS Self-Managed direct investments affected by unit pricing? Transfers from NGS Accumulation, Transition to retirement or Income account pre-mixed or sector-specific options into your NGS Self-Managed cash account are based on the unit price at the time of transfer. However, a decrease in unit prices may occur between the time of your request being made and transfer being completed. Should the value of your transfer be equal to or greater than 95% of premixed or sector-specific option(s) you have selected, the system will give you the option of transferring the full option holding(s) or reducing the amount of your request to take into account any unit price decrease. The value of the securities you purchase from your NGS Self Managed account are then determined by the market price of your investments and/or the amount held in any term deposit/s and your cash account, taking into account any adjustments for transaction fees or other expenses applied to your cash account. Closing your NGS Self-Managed account If you wish to close your NGS Self- Managed account, you must first sell your NGS Self-Managed investments (or allow term deposits to mature) and await proceeds to be credited to your cash account, before transferring to your current NGS Accumulation, Transition to retirement or Income account pre-mixed or sector-specific options. Depending on the types of investments you have, this may take some time to process. Capital losses As part of calculating your annual tax position, any capital losses on the disposal of your assets will be applied against capital gains you may have accrued. The ability to make a tax adjustment will depend on the overall capital gain position of NGS Self-Managed investments and/or the Fund. 8 NGS Super is working towards introducing a facility to directly move securities between Accumulation, Transition to retirement and Income accounts.

ASX code Name Maximum percentage of your total Accumulation, Transition to retirement or Income account balance that can be invested in a single security Term deposit break fees cont. Macquarie Bank The interest adjustment is currently 25% of earned interest and will be deducted from the interest paid to your NGS Self-Managed Cash Account. For example, if you have a $100,000 Term Deposit invested at 5.00%p.a. for a term of 90 days and you terminate the Term Deposit 65 days into the term, then $222.60 will be deducted from the interest paid to you. This calculation is as follows: $100,000 x 5.00% x (65/365) x 25% = $222.60. National Australia Bank Limited (NAB) Any request to break a NAB Term Deposit before the agreed maturity will be subject to the approval of NAB; and will result in reduced interest generated on that term deposit. What is early withdrawal and reduction of return? Where you request an early withdrawal of the term deposit prior to the agreed maturity, NAB will reduce the interest generated on the term deposit. NAB will calculate the reduction in interest based on the proportion of the term remaining according to the percentages shown below: Percentage of TD term remaining 0 to less than 20% 80% 20 to less than 40% 60% 40 to less than 60% 40% 60 to less than 80% 20% 80 to less than 100% 10% Percentage of interest paid Here s an example of how NAB calculates its reasonable cost: John opens a $100,000 NAB Term Deposit for 6 months at 4% p.a. after four months John requests an early withdrawal since John held the Term Deposit for 4 months the percentage of term remaining falls into the category of 60 to less than 80% which reduces the interest to 20% of the original rate of 4%, i.e. 0.8% the calculation is therefore $100,000 x 0.8% p.a. = $800.00.
