ING grabs top corporate super rating

Heron has ranked ING's corporate super offering number one for a second successive year.

ING Corporate Super has been awarded five stars and its second consecutive number one rating from research firm The Heron Partnership.

The rating comes after the group made changes to the options offered to members late last year and changed its remuneration structure for advisers.

"The changes we implemented focused on simplifying and demystifying super," ING Australia executive director for employer super Ross Bowden said.

According to The Heron Partnership managing director Chris Butler, the changes had made ING's offering more attractive to members.

 
 

"ING has improved their insurance offering, included some new investment options, enhanced their communications, introduced fee flexibility as well as some innovative member servicing initiatives," Butler said.

In the last quarter of 2007 the group added options to its offering following 18 months of research into the sector.

These included new investment funds to the corporate super product and improved insurance by increasing benefit levels within its employer super plans.

It offered basic level of cover for all occupations regardless of plan size and improvements in terms.

In September it also announced that its advisers who charge out their time will receive remuneration monthly if they sell ING's corporate super or Integra super funds.

Payments were previously made quarterly or annually. The structure is available at the plan and member level.
