January 15, 2015 The ING DIRECT Living Super Balanced Option, the first Balanced option available to all Australians with no administration, contribution or management fees, has been assigned a ‘Recommended’ rating by Lonsec in its first review. Commenting on the rating, Mark Woolnough, Head of Third Party Distribution at ING DIRECT, said: “Living Super is a great superannuation platform that is already resonating strongly with Australians who are increasingly demanding more transparency and better control when it comes to their retirement planning. “The ‘Recommended’ rating demonstrates the strong conviction that Lonsec has for the Living Super Balanced Option. This is a great endorsement and yet another reason for advisers to consider Living Super for their clients.” Alongside the ability to invest in ING DIRECT Cash and Term Deposits with no fees, Living Super offers a wide menu of investment options with access to a range of managed funds, as well as real time trading of shares listed on the ASX/S&P 200 index and selected ETF’s and LIC’s.
