Flexible investment options
AMP Flexible Super gives you the flexibility and control to choose from different approaches to investing to cater for your individual investment style.
- AMP MySuper investment option - a lifecycle solution - the AMP MySuper investment option takes the hard work out of deciding how to invest your super, by providing the simplicity of a single investment option tailored for your age group. During your younger years the investment strategy seeks higher returns through greater exposure to growth assets such as shares. As you approach retirement, the investment aim is to reduce risk and preserve capital, so the asset allocation mix shifts to more stable defensive assets. This option is suitable for members who do not want to actively choose an investment mix and who are seeking to grow their super.
- Choose your own investment options - best suited for those who want to select their own risk level and take greater control of their super. You can select up to 15 investment options from our full range of over 70 options including individual funds and diversified multi-manager options. Learn more in our investment options fact sheet.
You can also use our 'what investor style am I?' simulator to help you work out what sort of investor you are.
After you open your account it’s easy to switch your investment options at any time as your life or investment goals change, and you won't be charged any switching fees. Simply log in to My AMP
