CPI

CPI stands for Consumer Price Index, which is used as a measure of inflation.

Investment risk

The main risk when investing your super is that your savings will fall short of your income needs in retirement. The appropriate level of risk will depend on when you need to access your super savings.

Standard Risk Measure

The Standard Risk Measure is used across super funds to help members compare the risk levels of investment options. It is the short-term risk that your super savings will be reduced by volatility (or the ups and downs) of investment markets and the estimated number of negative returns that may be experienced in 20 years. Actuarial calculations are done to come up with an estimate for each investment option.
