What Is Unit Pricing In Super Funds?
Ever noticed your super balance going up and down, even when you haven’t made any changes? It’s not just about fees, contributions, or insurance premiums – it’s also about how your super fund calculates investment earnings.
Super funds use one of two methods to allocate investment earnings: unit pricing or crediting rates. While industry super funds have traditionally used crediting rates, most funds now use unit pricing, which works similarly to buying and selling shares in a company.
