Insurance options
LifeTrack Employer Superannuation offers access to competitively priced insurance cover. Insurance that is acquired through a superannuation fund can be tax effective - a financial adviser can provide more information about this if required.
Options include:

Each employee's insurance needs may be different. The optimum level of insurance required will usually differ depending on age, financial circumstances and family situation. IOOF recommends that individuals consult a financial adviser to discuss the most appropriate level of insurance cover.
