Source: APRA Comprehensive Product Performance Package 2026, published 28 August 2026. Fees reflect the reporting year to 30 June 2026, are net of tax, use standard arrangements and exclude member-activity fees. Dollar figures are rounded. They are not a current quote. Check the latest PDS for changes, insurance premiums and any separately charged advice.
Returns are annualised historical results. Different return bases, risk levels and periods cannot be treated as interchangeable. MySuper net returns use a $50,000 representative balance even when you change the fee balance. A lifecycle stage return does not track a person moving between stages. Missing figures mean not reported, not zero. Past returns do not predict future returns. Read our method and APRA's definitions.

Sources1234 | Core has a narrower menu of funds, models and income investments. Plus has broader managed-fund and listed-investment access. Sources123 |

Sources1234 | Personal Super members can apply for group cover or eligible individual LifeWRAP policies, including death, TPD and income protection. Sources123 |
| Retirement income | Both product families have pension arrangements with their own disclosure. Sources1234 | Pension functionality is part of Super Accelerator; available investments and cash needs should be reviewed for the drawdown period. Sources123 |

| Fee details to check | Use the PDS for either Acclaim or Core and read the July 2026 product and administrator updates. Direct share costs differ from Core's managed-option costs. Sources1234 | Include fixed and balance-based administration charges, underlying fund or model costs, trading costs and advice. A quoted Core administration percentage excludes additional fixed or minimum fees. Sources123 |
| Comparing investment performance | Core options have their own investment histories. A direct-investment Acclaim account has no single return that represents all members. Sources1234 | Performance belongs to the selected investments and the member's allocation, not the Netwealth brand. Sources123 |

Acclaim may suit an advised member with a defined direct-investment strategy; Core is a different proposition for someone choosing managed options.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW
Best researched when an advised or self-selected portfolio needs the investments and reporting functions the platform provides.

Use the membership rules to establish which accounts are available to you. Then compare the total price of the investment option and cover you need. A lower fee or higher historical return alone does not tell you which fund is suitable.
Ask both funds to confirm insurance acceptance, exclusions, waiting periods and whether cover would change when you leave your employer. Obtain advice before giving up a defined benefit or an insurance policy you may not be able to replace. ASIC Moneysmart explains the comparison checks.
