Apply for a MySuper authorisation

Who needs to be authorised?
 

A registrable superannuation entity (RSE) licensee that intends to offer a MySuper product, must seek authorisation from APRA. RSE licensees must apply for authorisation for each MySuper product they wish to offer.

APRA cannot authorise a MySuper product for a fund that has fewer than seven members. 

MySuper products can only be issued to RSE licence holders in respect of a registered APRA-regulated superannuation fund (RSE). If you wish to apply for an RSE licence and/or register an RSE, you need to apply via the approved forms available on the licensing section.

Application guidelines
 

For more information on MySuper authorisation, see the relevant instruction guide. The guidelines outline APRA’s authorisation process for MySuper, including the minimum criteria to be addressed by applicants and the necessary information required to be lodged with an application.

All applications must be lodged online though APRAConnect using the application form (the approved form).
