The performance figures below represent net returns after fees and taxes.
| Net performance* (%) | 3 mth | 6 mth | 1 yr | 3 yr | 5 yr |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Centuria Australian Shares Fund | -4.71% | -8.66% | -2.21% | 4.82% | 3.90% |
| Centuria Balanced Fund | -4.56% | -5.31% | 0.63% | 3.92% | 3.21% |
| Centuria Growth Fund | -4.42% | -5.45% | -0.74% | 2.56% | 2.35% |
* Net performance as at N/A. For periods of 1 year or longer, the movement is expressed as an annual rate of return. For periods less than 1 year, the return is expressed as a percentage for that corresponding period. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.
For all investment options, the difference between the application price and the redemption price of a unit occurs because of the buy/sell margin. The buy/sell margin is our estimate of the costs associated with buying and selling the underlying investments. It is an additional cost included in the unit price of each investment option and is not charged to you separately.
Small differences in both investment performance and fees and costs can have a substantial impact on your long-term returns.
For example, total annual fees and costs of 2% of your fund balance rather than 1% could reduce your final return by up to 20% over a 30-year period (for example, reduce it from $100,000 to $80,000).
You should consider whether features such as superior investment performance or the provision of better member services justify higher fees and costs.
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission’s (ASIC) Moneysmart website has a managed investment fee calculator to help you check out the different fee options.
Total estimated fees and costs for Centuria LifeGoals Investment Options are calculated as the sum of 0.30% Centuria Life admin fee and the external manager fee and cost depending on the investment options chosen.
The estimated fees and costs for Centuria multi-manager investment options range from 1.20% to 1.50%.
Being aware of the fees and charges you pay on your investment is important due to the overall effect they have on your returns so make sure you familiarise yourself with them. Download the Product Disclosure Statement for full details on the fees and other costs on Centuria LifeGoals investments.
| Centuria Multi-Manager Investment Options | Centuria Life admin Fee per annum | total estimated Fees and costs per annum |
|---|---|---|
| Centuria Australian Shares Fund | 1.20% | 1.20% |
| Centuria Balanced Fund | 1.50% | 1.50% |
| Centuria Growth Fund | 1.50% | 1.50% |

Centuria LifeGoals is an investment product that allows you to access 38 investment options including low cost index funds, best of breed active managers, geared and ESG Funds. The maximum tax rate of 30% less allowable deductions on behalf of investors. As tax is paid within the fund, investors do not have to declare fund earnings in their tax returns.
Investments can be made with as little as $500 through an easy to complete online application process.
Within the online application, Centuria has included a “Green ID” system, where an Investor’s identification can be verified within seconds, making the online application process even quicker.
Please read the PDS and consider using the Centuria LifeGoals Investment Forecaster Tool.
The minimum an investor can invest, in an individual investment option is $500 to start. The minimum additional investment into a fund that you have exposure to is $100. There is no limit on how much an investor can invest during the first year.
Investors can choose to set up a regular savings plan, whereby Centuria will direct debit from your nominated bank account a set amount at a frequency of your choosing, being Monthly, Quarterly or Annually.
Alternately, Investors can complete an online additional application form available in Centuria Investor and funds can be transferred by either BPAY or Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) or once off Direct Debit.
You can add up to 125% of the previous year’s total contributions without resetting the start date of your investment. This is known as the 125% rule.
This allows you to invest more every year and grow your portfolio. For example, if an Investor invested $100,000 during the first year, they could invest a maximum of $125,000 in the second year without having to reset their initial investment date.
Yes, you can. Withdrawal requests are paid directly to your nominated bank account within 14 days of receiving your request.
An investor in Centuria LifeGoals can withdraw all or part of their investment at any time. If you withdraw prior to the 10 year investment period, you will normally only pay tax on the difference between 30% and any higher marginal tax rate applicable to you in that financial year on your earnings. In years nine and 10 this difference is discounted by one-third and two-thirds respectively. However, no additional tax may be payable if a withdrawal is made in the following exceptional circumstances (regardless of whether it is made within or after 10 years): death, accident, serious illness or other disability affecting the Life Insured.
After ten years you pay no tax on withdrawals regardless of your personal marginal tax rate.
No
Centuria Life pays tax on the earnings attributable to the product rather than the underlying investor. The investment options are, therefore, a tax-paid investment. This means an investor does not need to include the investment earnings in their personal tax return.
The earnings are not distributed to the investor but stay within the structure of the bond and compound.
Centuria LifeGoals offers a carefully selected range of 38 externally managed investment bond options across a range of risk profiles. The Centuria Life Investment Committee conduct extensive research in the fund selection process to deliver access to high quality fund managers in their sectors. Investors have access to investments across a range of asset classes being cash, fixed interest, Australian shares, international shares, property and infrastructure.
Additionally, there are three multi-manager investment options available that are managed by Centuria Life. The external managers and underlying investments in each of the investment options have been selected based on the screening and asset allocation by the Centuria Life Investment Committee.
Simplicity
It is easy to set up your investment and a regular investment plan via our application form. You do not need to declare earnings from your investment in your annual tax return or keep any ongoing tax records while your investment is held. We will send you an annual statement and regular confirmations to keep you updated on your investment.
Access to your funds
Centuria LifeGoals allows you to withdraw funds at any time with the benefit of having no further tax to pay on those funds if you meet the ten-year rule. It can provide an income stream if you wish to retire early before you can access your superannuation.
Complementary to super
You are generally unable to access your super until you meet a condition of release i.e. retire at, or after a certain age.

A Child Plan is a feature of Centuria LifeGoals, where you can invest for children below the age of 16 years as an endowment, whilst maintaining full ownership, control and access, until ownership automatically transfers to the nominated child when they reach the Vesting Age nominated by you.
The Vesting Age must be between 10 and 25 years of age.
An investment bond is a life insurance product with features that are favourable for estate planning. Upon the death of the Life insured your investment will mature and become payable to the nominated beneficiaries. The investment does not form part of your estate. There is no need for probate. The monies can generally be paid out within 14 days of receipt of the completed request for redemption.
You can also use the assignment (transfer) feature of LifeGoals, and transfer ownership of your Centuria LifeGoals investment at any time without tax implications for either party involved.
Unlike superannuation, investors have access to their investment and can make withdrawals at any time. This can be particularly useful for investors who want to accumulate wealth in a tax effective environment while still having access to funds.
Additionally, investors can make unlimited contributions during their first year invested in a Centuria LifeGoals product and then each year contribute up to 125% of the previous years contribution, whereas superannuation is subject to caps on how much an investor can contribute each year and a cap on total lifetime contributions.
Individuals (single or joint holders), trusts or corporate entities are able to invest in LifeGoals with exception of LifeGoals Child Plan where only individuals can invest.
