Digital advice now available for Future Super members

Future Super members are now able to access digital advice via its mobile app, with the capability to be introduced across to Future Group's broader brand offering over time.

The super fund announced the partnership with Bravura's Midwinter to bring in digital advice September last year, which is now available for Future Super members to improve member experience and retirement outcomes.

The first phase of the rollout focuses on pre-retirement advice and provides access to retirement projections based on members' circumstances, Future Group said.

Members can also explore contribution and accumulation strategies, aligned investment options with their preferences and risk appetite, receive real-time guidance and complete the process through a self-service digital experience.

They will receive a digitally generated Statement of Advice, as member details are pre-populated within the advice journey to reduce friction and simplify the process.

For Future Group, the model is designed to support its internal advice team, as the fund continues to invite members to book in with its advice specialists for personal advice and one-on-one support.

Commenting, Future Group general manager partnerships and advice Rosh Singappuli explained the offering will improve member outcomes.

"We've had a collaborative approach from the outset, allowing us to focus on a clear and collective vision: how we guide our members to a sustainable retirement, while also considering their individual circumstances and goals," Singappuli said.

Midwinter head of advice products Michelle Lusty said the partnership reflected a shared focus on improving retirement outcomes and putting members first.

"The energy and drive from the Future Group team to stay true to their values and deliver better retirement outcomes to their members has been inspiring," she said.

Bravura also said AMP and other super funds have ramped up Midwinter-based initiatives to support members with more accessible, real-time financial advice.
