The information in the:
- Product Disclosure Statement for the Personal Superannuation Division of the Mercer Super Trust; and
- Product Disclosure Statements for those employer plans in the Corporate Superannuation Division of the Mercer Super Trust with accumulation style members or defined benefit members with accumulation style super,
is updated to provide for Mercer SuperAdvice.
Refer to the Mercer Super Trust update - Mercer SuperAdvice December 2009 for details.
Mercer SuperAdvice is an offer exclusively for members of the Mercer Super Trust. You can now experience the benefits of qualified financial advice provided by a Mercer financial adviser in relation to your Mercer Super Trust account with the fees conveniently deducted from your super balance.
Mercer SuperAdvice allows you to meet face-to-face with an experienced Mercer financial adviser to develop a financial plan that relates to your super and benefits in the Mercer Super Trust.
What’s great about Mercer SuperAdvice is that the cost of your personal financial advice package can be paid out of your super balance in the Mercer Super Trust – rather than paying for it directly!

You can take advantage of Mercer SuperAdvice by choosing from one of the packages below, as long as you have a minimum of $5,000* in your Mercer Super Trust account after the advice fees are paid. You’ll see the deduction on your next member statement.
Mercer SuperAdvice is available to members of the:
- Personal Superannuation Division of the Mercer Super Trust; and
- Corporate Superannuation Division of the Mercer Super Trust with accumulation style super or defined benefit super with an accumulation style super account balance.
*Defined benefit members will need to have a balance of at least $5,000 in their accumulation style super account after the deduction of the advice fees to participate in Mercer SuperAdvice.
