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.

|---|---|---|
| Membership and access | The PDS requires an authorised financial adviser to be nominated on the application. Sources12 | Confirm access, advice requirements and minimum balance in the current Super Wrap PDS before applying. Sources123 |
| Accounts and products | Personal Super, Transition to Retirement Pension and Standard Account-Based Pension. Sources12 | Perpetual Super Wrap superannuation and pension. Sources123 |
| Investment choices | The menu includes ASX300 securities, ETFs, managed funds and term deposits. Eligible investments can be transferred in or out without selling, subject to the product's rules. Sources12 | The wrap offers a broad range of underlying investments. The current menu and each investment's disclosure govern availability, risk and any restrictions. Sources123 |
| Insurance | Eligible personal super members can apply for life and terminal illness, total and permanent disablement, and income protection cover through MetLife. Sources12 | Check Super Wrap's own current terms for any available insurance. Insurance offered through another Perpetual super product should not be assumed to apply. Sources123 |
| Retirement income | Account-based and transition-to-retirement pensions are available, with payment limits appropriate to each account. Sources12 | The service supports accumulation, transition to retirement and retirement income arrangements. Sources123 |
| Advice and support | The authorised adviser helps build the investment strategy and can give instructions for the account. Sources12 | The value of a wrap usually rests on the portfolio and advice services a member actually uses. Request a clear account of those services. Sources123 |
| Fee details to check | Include platform fees, underlying investments, trading, cash-account margin and adviser charges. Check the cash interest calculation in the current disclosure. Sources12 | Calculate platform charges together with underlying investments, transactions, cash-account effects and any adviser remuneration. Sources123 |
| Comparing investment performance | Returns depend on the chosen portfolio and cash holding. There is no MySuper option to use as a universal benchmark. Sources12 | Use the selected portfolio and actual costs. A return from WealthFocus or Select does not describe a Super Wrap member's investments. 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.
