Link super accounts and save
Linking a self-managed super fund account with a similar account belonging to family or friends has resulted in big savings for plenty of Australians.
Since its launch in April, 2007, the Aviva Navigator platform, which provides a simple online method of linking multiple accounts together and treating them as one for pricing purposes, has provided significant benefits to almost 12,000 accounts.
The significant take up by customers has validated the market-leading approach, according to the company’s general manager of wealth management products Andrew Barker.
And the savings are at their greatest when there are three or four separate high-net-worth accounts in the group.
“In some cases it is possible to have savings of over 50 per cent,” Barker said.
“No other platform combines this simple online account linking functionality with the substantial size of the discounts available.”
