GESB - Roll over your super

Roll over your super

If you've worked for a number of different employers over your career, you may have a number of super accounts. Avoid unclaimed or lost superannuation and unnecessary account fees by rolling your accounts into one place, an easy-to-manage super fund.

It makes sense to have just one super fund

Consolidating your super funds into your GESB account means you have just one account to look after and:

Just one set of fees to pay, so you'll have more money to invest.
Less paperwork - just one comprehensive statement sent every six months.
You can choose your own investment strategy.
You pay low ongoing administration fees.

Before you move your super out of other funds, check with your other funds about whether you'll be charged an exit fee when withdrawing your super. Also check whether consolidating your funds will affect your insurance cover.

If you're rolling your super funds into your GESB account, you won't be charged entry fees to consolidate your super.

How do GESB's fees and charges measure up to other super funds?

Would you like to find out how your super fund measures up against other funds? We like to think pretty well, as our 5 apples rating from Chant West would attest to.
Don't just take our word for it. Use the free Chant West AppleCheck tool to compare your super fund with other funds you select.

Attached certified copies of your proof of identification. This includes your driver's licence, passport or birth certificate.

Once these steps have been completed, we'll write to you to confirm the consolidation of your super.

Case Study: Find lost super

Eileen had a number of super accounts with different funds but lost track of where they were all held. Thanks to the lost super register, Eileen was able to find all of her lost superannuation.

She found that with 5 super accounts, she was paying administration fees to each fund every year. When Eileen rolled her funds into her GESB Super account, she saved more than $200 in administration fees and saved the hassle of all the paperwork and confusion of her previous super accounts. Best of all, all she had to do was complete the Super Consolidation form, and GESB did the rest.
