From 15 February 2025, we’re changing insurance rate premiums and making enhancements that will take effect from 15 February 2025 for FirstChoice Wholesale Personal Super members. 

Why we've made these changes

We have negotiated new rates with AIA, the insurance provider for CFS super products. AIA, like all insurers, periodically reviews insurance premiums to ensure that members are paying the appropriate amount for their cover and to allow them to continue paying claims to members in their time of need. 

Summary of insurance premium rate changes

Death and Total and Permanent Disablement cover 
Salary Continuance Insurance cover with a 2 year benefit period
Salary Continuance Insurance cover with a 5 year benefit period or up to age 65 

FirstChoice Wholesale Personal Super

Death and Total and Permanent Disablement cover

Salary Continuance Insurance cover with a 2 year benefit period

No Change

Salary Continuance Insurance cover with a 5 year benefit period or up to age 65

Note: The actual premium changes may vary for each member due to factors such as occupation and underwriting loadings (if applicable). Due to rounding, actual dollar premium changes may also vary. We will be writing to your clients with further details. These insurance premium changes are provided by the insurer with a conditional three-year premium rate guarantee. 

Improvements to your clients' insurance offer

The changes outlined in the Key Changes Flyer will be automatically applied to client accounts from 15 February 2025, so no action is required. 

How your affected clients will be notified

Members will be notified of these upcoming changes from 5 December 2024. Here is an example of the communication that clients can expect to receive.
