Multi-manager investment options simplify the investment selection process by combining the ‘best of breed’ manager blends to suit your investment objectives.

This allows you to invest in a range of investment options which may be diversified across different asset classes, fund managers and investment styles.  

Insurance

You can choose to purchase insurance either through the group life and income protection insurance policies or via a separate retail insurance policy. Either way, this can be achieved tax-effectively by paying the premiums for the life insurance you need with pre-tax dollars through your super account. Before deciding whether to hold insurance through IOOF Essential Super, you should read the Insurance Guide, available on our website (www.ioof.com.au).
