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

Macquarie Wrap

Retail platform

Macquarie Wrap provides Super and Pension Consolidator II and Manager II for advised portfolios.

Membership

Macquarie says its Wrap products are designed for people who have received personal advice to apply and to help manage the account.

Netwealth

Retail platform

Netwealth Super Accelerator is a platform for building and administering a selected investment portfolio. Core and Plus have different investment menus.

Membership

Check the product's application requirements and whether a financial adviser will manage the account.

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.

Choose an investment option to see the figures

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

Managed funds, separately managed accounts, listed investments and other assets permitted by the chosen menu.

Sources123
Insurance

Insurance can be accessed through selected providers under the relevant product documents.

Sources123

Personal Super members can apply for group cover or eligible individual LifeWRAP policies, including death, TPD and income protection.

Sources123
Retirement income

Super and pension accounts are available. The current II products do not accept conversion of an existing term allocated pension into that product type.

Sources123

Pension functionality is part of Super Accelerator; available investments and cash needs should be reviewed for the drawdown period.

Sources123
Advice and support

A financial adviser is part of the intended product model.

Sources123

The platform supports a nominated financial adviser, with agreed advice fees separate from investment and platform costs.

Sources123
Fee details to check

Use the fees effective from 1 September 2026. Add investments, trading, advice and any cash-account economics; Macquarie published administration and ORFR changes for that date.

Sources123

Include fixed and balance-based administration charges, underlying fund or model costs, trading costs and advice. A quoted Core administration percentage excludes additional fixed or minimum fees.

Sources123
Comparing investment performance

The member's portfolio and costs determine the result. An old Macquarie brand return is not a platform performance measure.

Sources123

Performance belongs to the selected investments and the member's allocation, not the Netwealth brand.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Macquarie Wrap

Editorial assessment

Worth comparing for an advised investor who needs the menu and account-management functions.

What deserves a closer look

  • The intended advice relationship creates a cost and service dependency.
  • Current fees changed in September 2026, so older comparison tables can be wrong.

Based on the cited product features. These are general reasons to investigate the fund, not a personal recommendation. Supporting sources.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Netwealth

Editorial assessment

Best researched when an advised or self-selected portfolio needs the investments and reporting functions the platform provides.

What deserves a closer look

  • Do not assume a zero platform investment-fee line means the underlying investments are free.
  • An SMSF service is a different product and responsibility structure.

Before choosing between Macquarie Wrap and Netwealth

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.
