Retail investment platform
Praemium Super brings adviser-managed portfolios and direct investment choices into a superannuation account.
An adviser helps establish the account and select the appropriate investment arrangements.
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.
| What to compare | Macquarie Wrap | Praemium Super |
|---|---|---|
| Membership and access | Macquarie says its Wrap products are designed for people who have received personal advice to apply and to help manage the account. Sources123 | An adviser helps establish the account and select the appropriate investment arrangements. Sources123 |
| Accounts and products | Super and Pension Consolidator II and Manager II, plus existing legacy products. Sources123 | Accumulation super, transition-to-retirement and pension. Sources123 |
| Investment choices | Managed funds, separately managed accounts, listed investments and other assets permitted by the chosen menu. Sources123 | The menu includes managed portfolios and direct investment choices. Availability, allocation limits and the operating cash balance are governed by the current investment guide. Sources123 |
| Insurance | Insurance can be accessed through selected providers under the relevant product documents. Sources123 | Insurance access is subject to the current PDS, application requirements and the chosen policy. Have the adviser explain the insurer and any underwriting before cancelling existing cover. 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 | Members can use transition-to-retirement or pension accounts when eligible, with investment and withdrawal arrangements set for that account. Sources123 |
| Advice and support | A financial adviser is part of the intended product model. Sources123 | This is an advised platform. Ongoing portfolio advice is a separate service that should have a clear scope and price. 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 | Compare the combined platform, portfolio, investment, transaction and advice charges at your balance. Cash holdings and the particular menu selections affect the calculation. 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 | Use the record for the actual portfolio. Praemium's platform capabilities do not supply a single investment return for all members. Sources123 |

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.
