GESB West State and Gold State Super

We specialise in providing financial advice for GESB West State Super and GESB Gold State Super members.

Unique super funds

GESB West State Super and Gold State Super are unique super funds. They are “constitutionally protected” and untaxed super funds. If you have one of these accounts it pays to get professional financial advice to ensure you take advantage of opportunities that are unique to West State and Gold State members.
Gold State Super is a defined benefit scheme which makes it even more unique. The account balance is not linked to investment markets, but rather it’s based on a formula that consists of your salary, contribution rate and years of completed service.
