    New loan to include offset facility

    AMP Bank is re-launching SuperEdge, its residential Self Managed Super Fund (SMSF) lending solution, marking the Bank’s return to SMSF property lending for brokers and their customers.

    With more than $1 trillion in assets under management and over 1.2 million members, SMSFs are a major part of our retirement system. Many trustees, particularly pre-retirees, want to invest with greater control and confidence, while maintaining the flexibility and liquidity they need as retirement approaches.

    SuperEdge will meet that need, providing a transparent, well-governed lending option delivered through brokers and directly through AMP Bank’s home lending specialists, and supported by a strong credit and compliance framework.

    It also includes practical features that reflect how SMSF trustees manage cash flow and risk – including flexible repayment options and an optional SMSF offset facility – alongside a broker-first digital experience designed to reduce rework and speed up decisions.

     

    Sean O’Malley, AMP Bank’s Group Executive, said:

    AMP Bank’s return to SMSF lending is about providing greater choice at a time when retirement planning is becoming more complex.

    “Australians approaching retirement are balancing two competing pressures – enjoying life today, while making sure they’ll have enough for tomorrow. That tension is driving demand for solutions that offer more control, flexibility and confidence.

    “SMSF trustees want to retire on their terms – but without the right structure and support, those decisions can become harder. SuperEdge is designed to provide trustees with a competitive, transparent and responsible lending option as they build long-term wealth.

    “As a challenger bank, we’re thinking differently about lending – using clearer policy settings and smarter digital checks to deliver a better experience, while staying focused on long-term customer outcomes.”

     

    Michael Christofides, AMP Director of Lending & Everyday Banking, said:

    SuperEdge is built around the realities of SMSF lending – for both brokers and trustees.

    “SuperEdge combines practical features, like flexible repayments and an optional offset, with a digital broker experience that helps reduce friction and improve turnaround times.

    “We’ve built in automated SMSF structure checks and document validation to help cut rework – while maintaining strong responsible lending settings.”

     

    SuperEdge is currently in a pilot testing phase, with broader market availability targeted for Q1 2026.
