New financial planning services here now!

CONNECT has appointed Industry Fund Financial Planning (IFFP) to provide our members with expert financial planning advice. As a result, we now have our own in-house expert financial planner, backed up by the expertise and additional resources of IFFP.

Industry Fund Financial Planning specialises in helping industry superannuation fund members like ours, and their planners don’t receive or charge commissions, which means you can be confident your interests are being put first.

What services are available?

A financial planner can make sure you are on track for a comfortable retirement – and more.

Services include advice on:

• how to invest your super
• selecting the right insurance cover
• how much to contribute to super and the tax benefits of salary sacrifice
• retirement planning, including making the most of how super is taxed, social security and the super rules.

Advice is tailored to your personal situation, goals and needs.

How much does it cost?

Services are flexible. Advice on a single, specific issue such as how to invest your super or how much insurance cover you need is free. More extensive advice (for example, a comprehensive pre-retirement plan) is charged on a ‘fee for service’ basis.

All costs associated with preparing a financial plan are explained up front so you can decide whether or not to proceed.

Accessing this service is simple. Call 1800 025 464 to arrange for our financial planner to contact you.
