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.

|---|---|---|
| Membership and access | The current Acclaim disclosure library explicitly labels AMG Personal Super and Pension as closed to new members. Sources1234 | Public membership under the Virgin Money product rules. Sources1234 |
| Accounts and products | Legacy AMG Personal Super and Pension. Sources1234 | Virgin Money Super. Sources1234 |
| Investment choices | The disclosed investment service includes listed securities, term deposits and cash arrangements. Existing members should check their own current menu before placing an instruction. Sources1234 | LifeStage Tracker changes the asset mix with age. Choice investments include diversified and sector index strategies and Cash. Sources1234 |
| Insurance | Occupation-rating and insurance application documents remain in the disclosure library. Existing cover depends on the member's product and policy terms. Sources1234 | Automatic and tailored cover are available subject to eligibility. Premiums and a separate insurance cost-recovery charge apply. Sources1234 |
| Retirement income | Pension documents remain available for existing members. A legacy pension's rules should be checked before changing accounts. Sources1234 | The reviewed super pages do not establish a dedicated Virgin Money pension account; check the intended retirement-income pathway. Sources1234 |
| Advice and support | An adviser can review whether the existing account still serves the member's portfolio and retirement needs; product closure alone does not establish that switching is better. Sources1234 | Member support can explain the product. Ask which personal advice services are available and what they cost. Sources1234 |
| Fee details to check | Read AMG Personal's PDS with the July 2026 product and administrator updates. Use its own costs, not Acclaim Core's managed-option pricing. Sources1234 | The current fee page separates a $58 annual fixed administration fee, a balance-based administration charge, administration costs, option fees and transaction costs. A low investment fee is not a low total fee by itself. Sources1234 |
| Comparing investment performance | Returns depend on the investments held. Historical AMG MySuper returns should not be presented as the performance of every AMG Personal account. Sources1234 | Compare the correct LifeStage cohort or selected option, including all relevant costs. Sources1234 |

THE SUPERGURU VIEW
Worth comparing for someone seeking that default structure or who can use the product's specific benefits.
Based on the cited product features. These are general reasons to investigate the fund, not a personal recommendation. Supporting sources.
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.
