Who is eligible to invest in Cbus Self-Select?
To be eligible to invest in Cbus Self-Select you must either:
- have $50,000 in a Cbus account, or
- be able to make an initial contribution of $50,000, or
- roll over funds from another superannuation account of at least $50,000.
However, the Trustee has the discretion to establish a member's account with less than $50,000 if the Trustee is satisfied that the member will transfer the initial minimum account balance totalling $50,000 into the Fund within 3 months of receipt of the member's signed application.
If within 3 months of joining Cbus Self-Select, a member's account balance has not reached $50,000, the Trustee may transfer the member's account balance to Cbus Industry Super, Cbus Personal Super or Cbus Self-Employed Super, as the Trustee considers appropriate.
