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 | Netwealth | Praemium Super |
|---|---|---|
| Membership and access | Check the product's application requirements and whether a financial adviser will manage the account. Sources123 | An adviser helps establish the account and select the appropriate investment arrangements. Sources123 |
| Accounts and products | Super Accelerator Core and Super Accelerator Plus, with pension account options. Sources123 | Accumulation super, transition-to-retirement and pension. Sources123 |
| Investment choices | Core has a narrower menu of funds, models and income investments. Plus has broader managed-fund and listed-investment access. 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 | Personal Super members can apply for group cover or eligible individual LifeWRAP policies, including death, TPD and income protection. 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 | Pension functionality is part of Super Accelerator; available investments and cash needs should be reviewed for the drawdown period. 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 | The platform supports a nominated financial adviser, with agreed advice fees separate from investment and platform costs. 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 | 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 | 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 | Performance belongs to the selected investments and the member's allocation, not the Netwealth brand. 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.
