Introducing CPIplus

CPIplus is designed for Hostplus pension members2 who want certainty without losing flexibility. It combines the average CPI over the last two quarters with an annually set rate, currently 2.5%3. CPIplus returns are not tied to the markets and are structured so they do not fall below zero.

No market swings. No surprises. Just steady returns that aim to stay ahead of inflation.

And you stay in control. Access your money anytime or switch options when it suits you.

Confidence. Simplicity. Flexibility. That’s CPIplus.

 

2. To open a Hostplus Pension account, a minimum of $10,000 must be invested and at least 1% of your balance must be invested in any selected investment option (including CPIplus). 

3. Though returns above inflation are predetermined annually, Hostplus can shorten the return period. Hostplus may also adjust the rate of return with at least 30 days’ notice.
