ING Australia has upgraded its corporate superannuation offering by including it in the extension of its online insurance offering, RiskWorks.
The company said the extension of RiskWorks to its Corporate Super and Integra Super products had followed the successful launch of the insurance offering into its OneAnswer Personal Super product in July.
It said advisers within Integra Super and Corporate Super could now apply for and manage their clients’ insurance applications with a greater transparency of progress throughout the underwriting process.
The insurance company has joined this year’s awards as a principal partner.
The $135 billion fund has transitioned away from TAL Life Insurance following an “extensive tender process”.
The $80 billion fund is facing legal action over allegedly signing up new members to income protection insurance by default without active member consent.
In a Senate submission, the Financial Services Council has once again called for further clarification that the government will assess the consumer outcomes of group insurance against the enshrined objective of superannuation.
