Pension fees and how they relate to your account

As an industry fund, REI Super is run only to benefit our members. We work for you, not shareholders. This means we can keep our fees competitive as we do not pay dividends to shareholders.

Fee cap for balances less than $6,000

If your super account has less than $6,000, fees will be capped at 3% of the account balance. This is to help prevent accounts with low balances from being eroded away by fees.

Fees include administration fees, investment fees and indirect costs. Any amount charged in excess of this cap will be refunded. 

 

Fee rebate on balances over $300,000

If your total account balance is over $300,000, you will receive a fee rebate on the portion of your account that is over $300,000.
