SMART (Superannuation Market Analysis and Research Tool) is the gateway for super funds to access market-leading data and research, allowing funds to understand, analyse and monitor the changing superannuation landscape. 

Utilise SMART data modules to search for and filter information, tracking competitors, and assess your fund across key benchmarks. It’s the perfect solution to ensure super funds have the complete data picture at their fingertips along with actionable insights and intelligence. 

Performance Test iQ – PTiQ 

Our Performance Test iQ tool (an interactive module within SMART) provides a holistic view of the superannuation market and enables super funds to see their estimated margin of comfort against the Performance Test, as well as where they sit against industry peers.
