If you are a member of the Aon Eligible Rollover
Fund
The Aon Eligible Rollover Fund is a public offer
superannuation fund and is referred to as either ‘the Aon
ERF’ or ‘the Fund’.
You may have been transferred to the Aon ERF by
your super fund because your fund lost contact with you; you were
considered an ‘inactive’ member; or you had a small
account balance.
Members may be transferred from Aon Master Trust
Personal Super to the Aon ERF when their balance falls below $1,500.
If a member’s balance in Aon Master Trust Corporate Super
is less than $5,000 and they terminate employment and do not make
an election to transfer to another Fund, they may be transferred
to the Aon ERF. In all cases the trustee of the Aon Master Trust
first writes out to the member and gives them an opportunity to
top up their balance before they are transferred to the ERF.
Features of the Aon ERF
The Aon ERF is designed to primarily accept benefits
transferred from complying superannuation funds, approved deposit
funds and retirement savings accounts, where members may be considered
‘lost’ or have
failed to nominate an alternative fund within a stipulated time
frame.
The Aon ERF accepts member benefits from the trustee
of the Aon Master Trust and trustees of other super funds for categories
of people who have become ineligible for membership of their fund.
The Fund also accepts Superannuation Guarantee payments and superannuation
holding account amounts from the ATO and rollovers from other complying
funds. As an eligible rollover fund, the Aon ERF cannot accept contributions
from members or spouses.
Benefits of the Aon ERF
- Member protection on all accounts – administration fees
on member accounts cannot exceed investment returns allocated
to the member, except where negative returns occur.
- No entry fees – no fees are deducted on entry to the fund
or on transfers or rollovers from other trustees or government
bodies.
- A defensive investment strategy – a strategy that maximises
the growth potential of a member account, based on achieving at
least a 0.5% out-performance of the Consumer Price Index over
rolling three year periods.
- Consolidation of member benefits – the Aon ERF accepts
small account balances and rollovers/transfers from other trustees,
Australian Tax Office (ATO) Superannuation Holding Account (SHA)
and Superannuation Guarantee (SG) vouchers.
- Helps locate lost super – active assistance with locating
members’ lost super using the ATO’s SuperMatch service.
