Protecting Your Super Package
The PDSs have been updated for the Protecting Your Super Package (‘PYS’) which came into effect on 1 July 2019. Key features of PYS include:
- Members’ insurance covers will be cancelled if their account is inactive for 16 months.
- Exit fees have been abolished.
- Fees charged on accounts with balances below $6,000 will be capped at 3% of the balance.
- Inactive accounts with balances below $6,000 will be transferred to the ATO.
Green Light for TraCRs
Transferable Custody Receipts (TraCRs) listed on the Chi-X stock exchange are now approved investments on the AMG platform.
AMG Super is happy to announce that advisers will be able to access international equities via TraCRs. A TraCR provides exposure to some of the world’s best-known and best-performing brands for your clients’ portfolios.
Chi-X TraCR Facts
TraCRs are issued in series with each series relating to a specific class of underlying shares. For example, if you hold one Apple TraCR (Chi-X code: TCXAPL), you will have a beneficial interest in one Apple Inc. share. TraCRs are issued and traded in Australian dollars, and amounts paid to investors in connection with TraCRs will be paid in Australian dollars.
