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 | NGS Super | Raiz Invest Super |
|---|---|---|
| Membership and access | Use the current joining criteria and insurance guide for the membership being considered; workplace arrangements can affect cover. Sources123 | Available under the current Raiz Invest Super PDS and member guide. Sources123 |
| Accounts and products | Accumulation, transition-to-retirement and Income accounts. Sources123 | Raiz Invest Super accumulation. Sources123 |
| Investment choices | Diversified is the MySuper option. Other choices include High Growth, Balanced, Defensive, Indexed Growth and sector options such as Australian shares, international shares, infrastructure, property, bonds, cash and term deposits. Sources123 | Nine portfolios include different diversified risk levels, Emerald, Property 10, Property 30 and Plus. Limits apply to shares and selected ETFs in Plus. Sources123 |
| Insurance | Insurance is available under the current guide. Compare cover definitions, insured amounts and premiums rather than relying on a general service award. Sources123 | Insurance is available when cover is held. The product documents include insurance-policy changes issued in June 2026. Sources123 |
| Retirement income | Income and transition-to-retirement accounts have separate disclosure documents. NGS explains that investment earnings are treated differently in these account types. Sources123 | The reviewed pages do not establish a dedicated pension account; verify an income-stream pathway before retirement. Sources123 |
| Advice and support | Single-issue advice limited to an NGS account and its insurance is available without a separate charge. Broader tailored advice is offered on an agreed fee-for-service basis. Sources123 | Product support is available through Raiz. Personal advice should be scoped separately. Sources123 |
| Fee details to check | The current page separates fixed administration, a balance-based component, reserve-paid administration costs and option-specific investment costs. Indexed Growth has a different investment cost from Diversified, so quote the actual chosen option. Sources123 | The $50,000 Plus cost example excludes underlying accessible-product costs, which depend on the investments selected. Include those costs before comparing with a ready-made portfolio. Sources123 |
| Comparing investment performance | Compare the same option, dates and account phase. The Indexed Growth and Diversified strategies should be assessed against their own asset mix and objectives. Sources123 | Compare the precise super portfolio, not the returns of a regular Raiz account with different cash flows or fees. Sources123 |

THE SUPERGURU VIEW
Worth comparing for someone who wants its particular portfolio choices and will use the app to manage their account.
Based on the cited product features. These are general reasons to investigate the fund, not a personal recommendation. Supporting sources.
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.
