Why Contribute to Nambawan Super?

Papua New Guinea does not have a social security system. Contributing to Superannuation is one of the best investments for the people you work with and care about. Particularly to safeguard employees who have become essential members of your team or corporate family. It drives a positive image as an Employer and portrays you as an Employer of Choice who is responsible and caring.

Employer contributions are not taxed at the time they are transferred to a super fund. These contributions are not taxed when held in trust or invested by the super fund.

Tax is applied on Employer Contributions once only (at concessional rates based on the years of contribution) at the time of exit and pay out to members.

In circumstances where the employer contribution is more than 15% of an employee’s fully taxable salary, the excess is treated as income in the hands of the Authorised Superannuation Fund and is taxed in the year in which the employer contribution was made.

Once you have joined Nambawan Super as an Employer you begin contributing a set amount of money into your employee's accounts including your employer portion of the contribution. The money is then invested by the managers of the Fund into things like shares, property, government bonds, and cash deposits.

Your employees (Members) can generally only access their super when they retire, or when they reach the preservation age of 55, or 25 years of service. There are also other limited circumstances where Members can access their super savings early.
