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

Equip Super

Industry fund

Equip Super combines a conventional super investment menu with retirement income products and a MyPension investment strategy.

Membership

Public joining is available, with separate terms for certain employer and defined benefit arrangements. A workplace plan may differ from the standard accumulation offer.

Hejaz Islamic Super and Pension

Closing retail fund product

Hejaz announced in August 2026 that its super and pension product is closing. Rollovers and redemptions are delayed while underlying investment unit prices are finalised.

Membership

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.

Hejaz Islamic Super and Pension, undergoing closure.

Investment choices

The menu includes diversified and sector options, with MySuper as the default for accumulation members who do not choose. Check the current menu: the Future Focus option closed on 17 June 2026.

Sources12345

The product site describes Growth, Balanced and Conservative portfolios based on Islamic investment principles. These descriptions explain the product; they are not an invitation to invest during closure.

Sources12
Insurance

Use the insurance guide for the relevant membership or employer category. Standard and workplace arrangements should not be treated as interchangeable.

Sources12345

Existing members should obtain written confirmation of any cover and its treatment during the closure before moving or cancelling another insurance arrangement.

Sources12
Retirement income

MyPension is a strategy for managing retirement savings across investment options. It is not a guaranteed lifetime pension.

Sources12345

The pension product is covered by the same closure and transaction-delay notices.

Sources12
Advice and support

Members can receive advice about their super at no extra cost. Ask about the scope and separate fees before proceeding with broader financial planning.

Sources12345

Contact the trustee and member service for account-specific closure instructions. Advice may help members compare a replacement fund and the implications for insurance.

Fee details to check

Use the schedule effective for the current year and chosen product. Equip published investment fee and cost changes effective 1 July 2026.

Sources12345

Use the account's current statement, PDS and closure notices for charges during the transition. Old marketing fee examples do not explain the final transfer amount.

Sources12
Comparing investment performance

Use current option names and the same account phase. The June 2026 option closure and earlier integration mean old menus and performance screenshots may mislead.

Sources12345

Delayed underlying unit pricing means a displayed balance may not establish the amount ultimately paid or rolled over.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Equip Super

Editorial assessment

Worth comparing for someone who wants support moving from super to pension, or who already belongs to an Equip employer plan.

What deserves a closer look

  • Catholic Super and Equip are brands within the same legal fund, not fully independent fund providers.
  • An existing defined benefit member needs scheme-specific information before any transfer.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Hejaz Islamic Super and Pension

Editorial assessment

An information page for affected members. The immediate task is understanding the closure process and the available alternatives.

What deserves a closer look

  • The reviewed notices do not establish a completed transfer, final closure date or guaranteed payment date.
  • Closure of this super product does not mean every Hejaz investment fund is closing.

Before choosing between Equip Super and Hejaz Islamic Super and Pension

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.
