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

GuildSuper

Retail fund brand

GuildSuper is retaining its brand while transferring into Smart Future Trust. The transition is still underway on the research date, so current notices matter more than an old fee table.

Membership

Use the current GuildSuper joining documents and the transfer notice. The brand remains available, although some member transactions are temporarily limited during the transition.

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

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 transfer introduces a refreshed investment menu and maps existing balances to comparable new options. Check the mapping for the precise option instead of assuming its old name and asset mix persist.

Sources12

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

The transfer notice says insurance cover and policy terms remain the same, but the insurance administration fee increases.

Sources12

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

Pension members remain in GuildSuper. The notice adjusts some September payment dates and temporarily limits member-initiated withdrawals and switches.

Sources12

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

Advice and support

Use the current contact and advice information in the product disclosure. Confirm the service and price before commissioning personal advice.

Sources12

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

New fund details apply to contributions from 5 September 2026. Compare the fee schedule applying after the transfer, including the higher insurance administration fee. The notice says most members are expected to pay lower overall fees, not all members.

Sources12

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.

Comparing investment performance

Any future comparison spanning the transfer needs the option mapping and strategy-history note. Do not splice two different strategies without explanation.

Sources12

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

Our take on GuildSuper

Editorial assessment

Most immediately useful for existing GuildSuper members checking where their account is going and how their particular fees change.

What deserves a closer look

  • The scheduled account transfer is 12 September 2026, with services expected to resume on 14 September; it is not complete on 11 September.
  • Some member transactions are unavailable from 4 to 14 September. The new contribution identifiers started earlier than the account transfer.

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 GuildSuper 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.
