Objective

SuperLife Age Steps automatically sets the proportion of your investment in income and growth assets based on your age. As you get older, the proportion of your investment in more volatile growth assets will be reduced, lowering the expected size of the ups and downs in the value of your investment. This option may be suitable if you are saving for retirement (assumed to be age 65), and assumes you will continue to invest your savings and spend them over your retirement period.

SuperLife Age Steps – Age 40 invests 79.2% in growth assets and 20.8% in income assets.

Fund Facts

Asset Class Multi-asset class
Geographic Focus International
Market Index The market index for the age step is a composite index. It is made up of the indices used to measure the performance of the assets that the age step invests in. The market index return for the age step is calculated using the weighted average annual return of the market indices used to measure the performance of the assets that the age step invests in. This is calculated by multiplying the index return for each asset class by the target asset allocation weights for each asset class
