CPI + 2.5%
More certainty over your returns in retirement.
With an average return of 6.94% over the last 4 years1, CPIplus helps retirees stay ahead of inflation.
- Returns set above inflation — CPI plus an extra rate set each year.
- Zero-return floor — Your return won’t drop below zero, even if inflation does.
- Full flexibility — Switch in or out anytime, access your money when you need it.
- Peace of mind — Not tied to the markets. Just predictable, daily returns.
Introducing CPIplus
CPIplus is designed for Hostplus pension members2 who want certainty without losing flexibility. It combines the average CPI over the last two quarters with an annually set rate, currently 2.5%3. CPIplus returns are not tied to the markets and are structured so they do not fall below zero.
No market swings. No surprises. Just steady returns that aim to stay ahead of inflation.
And you stay in control. Access your money anytime or switch options when it suits you.
Confidence. Simplicity. Flexibility. That’s CPIplus.
2. To open a Hostplus Pension account, a minimum of $10,000 must be invested and at least 1% of your balance must be invested in any selected investment option (including CPIplus).
3. Though returns above inflation are predetermined annually, Hostplus can shorten the return period. Hostplus may also adjust the rate of return with at least 30 days’ notice.
What our members are saying about CPIplus
"Last year, upon retiring, I set up my Hostplus Pension account with advice from my Hostplus Financial Planner. As my super and Age Pension are now my primary sources of income, avoiding big risks is important to me. My adviser explained that allocating a portion of my pension to the CPIplus option could provide a steady income with less worry, while allowing my other investments room to grow. Following this advice, we allocated 15% of my pension to the CPIplus option, with the remainder invested in the Balanced and Conservative Balanced options. This strategy aims to support my retirement needs by balancing income stability with the potential for growth."

Investing $10,000 in CPIplus compared to Cash and Australian Shares options in the pension phase
The graph illustrates the investment return outcomes of a $10,000 investment in the selected pension phase investment options, after accounting for investment fees and costs. It is designed to illustrate the reduction in volatility and stability of returns that an investment in the CPIplus option aims to achieve.
Information used in this illustration is correct as at 30 June 2024.
In considering this graph, it’s important to note that this information is general advice only, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance, and that the return outcomes shown may not be repeated in future years. It’s also important to consider your personal circumstances, which haven’t been accounted for in this information, before making a decision about Hostplus.
