Super Consumers Australia research has found that many Australians either don’t have a binding nomination or may have been inadequately informed about making one. Instead the money is put in a trust and managed by the super fund’s trustee. Only 10 per cent said they had been contacted and 13 per cent said they already had a binding nomination. ABC eported the story of Brooke Allan, whose uncle had added her and her cousin to a death benefit nomination form with Cbus. Depending on the fund and the type of nomination, binding nominations may also need to be renewed from time to time.
