GET ON YOUR WAY TO A GLORIOUS RETIREMENT

Start by opening an MLC super account. Then to help you maximise your tax-free income in retirement, you may consider bringing all your super savings across to your new MLC account. Once that’s complete, moving to an MLC pension is simple.

 

1. First, open an MLC super account

Have your tax file number (TFN) handy and read the MLC MasterKey Super & Pension Fundamentals product disclosure statement (PDF) and TMD (PDF)

2. Combine your super

Once your account is set up, we’ll help you bring your existing super together in just a few steps. Before combining your super, consider if it is right for you and weigh up the pros and cons before making your decision.

3. Next step, your pension

Once steps one and two are ticked off, you can set up your retirement pension online — or have a chat with one of our friendly financial coaches1 who can assist over the phone.
