Retail platform
Fiducian Superannuation Service is an advised master trust combining a selected managed-fund menu with super and pension administration.
The product is intended to be used with financial planning support; check the current application requirements.
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.

| Membership and access | BT Super Invest is currently limited to existing Westpac customers aged at least 18 in Australia. Panorama has its own application arrangements. Sources123 | The product is intended to be used with financial planning support; check the current application requirements. Sources123 |
| Accounts and products | Panorama Super and BT Super Invest. Sources123 | Fiducian Superannuation Service. Sources123 |
| Investment choices | Shares, ETFs, managed funds, managed portfolios and other permitted investments, depending on the selected product and menu. Sources123 | A selected managed-fund menu, Fiducian multi-manager funds, managed share and property-securities portfolios, fixed-interest securities and term deposits. Sources123 |
| Insurance | Check the insurance offering in the precise platform PDS; it should not be inferred from a former BT employer account. Sources123 | Multiple insurance options are available under the relevant documents. Sources123 |
| Retirement income | Super and pension account types are available. Minimum transaction-account balances differ by account phase. Sources123 | Account-based and existing term allocated pension portfolios are described in the product offering. Sources123 |
| Advice and support | Panorama supports adviser use; Super Invest is marketed to self-directed investors. Sources123 | Fiducian financial planning is central to the service; obtain an agreed advice scope and total fee quote. Sources123 |
| Fee details to check | Super Invest lists $540 a year plus a balance-based administration charge, then investment and transaction costs. Its quoted administration fee is not a total annual cost. Sources123 | Add super administration, underlying fund and portfolio costs, transactions and financial advice. Compare the cost of the actual proposed mix. Sources123 |
| Comparing investment performance | There is no single BT platform return. Compare the selected portfolio after platform, investment, transaction and advice costs. Sources123 | The member's chosen mix determines returns. Performance of one Fiducian managed fund is not the performance of every super account. Sources123 |

THE SUPERGURU VIEW
Relevant for people who want an advised relationship and will use the service rather than simply hold a default option.

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.
