Insurance through super

Life can throw unexpected challenges at us, an illness or an accident, and overnight our lives can change. Insurance provides financial security for you and your family.

Insurance gives you and your loved ones a safety net so you can move forward with confidence. Most ANZ Staff Super members have automatic death and Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) cover.1

As a corporate fund, ANZ Staff Super can offer insurance cover at group rates, which are generally cheaper than if an individual took out insurance cover directly with the insurer. We currently offer a 45% rebate on death plus Total and Permanent Disablement (TPD) premiums for most members, and according to research company Chant West, our premiums are some of the lowest in the market.2

What’s more, these premiums are automatically deducted from your super. So they don’t impact your take home pay and are funded from the lower tax environment of super.

Types of insurance

Insurance through ANZ Staff Super can provide you with peace of mind should the unexpected happen.
