Acclaim Super vs Super Retirement Fund

Compare what each fund offers, then choose investment options to put their published costs and returns side by side.

By SuperGuru Group · Research checked 11 September 2026 · Historical APRA figures to 30 June 2026

Acclaim Super

Retail fund brand

Acclaim offers a direct-investment super account and a separate Core product built around managed investment options.

Membership

Applications are available for current Acclaim products. AMG Personal Super is a separate legacy product closed to new members.

Super Retirement Fund

Transferred legacy fund

Super Retirement Fund members moved to National Mutual Retirement Fund on 1 July 2026. The older name still appears in statements and historical data.

Membership

This is a former fund arrangement. Continuing contributions now use the receiving fund's details and the correct product USI. Registration of the old entity does not mean members can remain in it.

Compare fees and investment returns

Choose the actual investment pathway for each account. For lifecycle products, select the named stage relevant to you. No stage is selected automatically.

The costs and returns belong to the selected product, option or lifecycle stage.

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.

Investment choices

Acclaim Super supports listed securities and term deposits, with individual share-trading arrangements. Core offers diversified and sector index managed funds.

Sources1234

Investment choices and policy benefits were tied to the individual contract. A June 2026 option return remains historical information about that option; it does not describe all transferred accounts.

Insurance

Insurance applications and employer-plan guides are available. Occupation ratings and the precise product determine the relevant terms.

Insurance held in an account at the transfer date moved with it. Members should use the current policy records when checking cover or making a claim.

Retirement income

Both product families have pension arrangements with their own disclosure.

Sources1234

Existing pension payments continue through the receiving fund under their agreed schedules. The transfer itself is different from voluntarily cashing out or surrendering a policy.

Advice and support

The service is built around adviser-managed portfolios and reporting. Establish the cost of any advice arrangement separately.

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.

Comparing investment performance

Core options have their own investment histories. A direct-investment Acclaim account has no single return that represents all members.

Keep June 2026 historical data under its original fund identity and link members to National Mutual Retirement Fund for current account context.

Do not offer Super Retirement Fund as a fund to join.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Acclaim Super

Editorial assessment

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

What deserves a closer look

  • AMG MySuper has been terminated. Check that any default-option information refers to a current product.
  • AMG, Acclaim, Raiz and Hejaz reporting can share the same legal fund ABN but have different terms.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Super Retirement Fund

Editorial assessment

The most useful job of this page is to connect an old statement to the current account. Check the receiving fund and product identifiers first. Then assess fees, investments and policy benefits using documents for the transferred section.

Who this profile is for

  • Former Super Retirement Fund members checking where their account moved.
  • Employers and family members resolving an old fund name or rejected contribution.

What deserves a closer look

  • The old fund remained on APRA's September register after member transfer; legal registration and operating account status are different.
  • Employers need the new product USI for contributions from 1 July 2026.
  • Historical costs should not be treated as a current quote for a transferred policy.

Before choosing between Acclaim Super and Super Retirement Fund

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.
