Visitors to the 59th Morobe Show on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th October 2022, will have the opportunity to learn more about the National Superannuation Fund, Nasfund, as its showcases its products and services at this annual event. Over the two days, visitors to the Nasfund exhibit at Bay 14 will be able to check their Nasfund account balances,1 update their membership details, register for the Fund’s TextBal and online services, and be issued new Nasfund membership ID cards. Entrepreneurs who are involved in micro and small to medium enterprises (MSMEs) will also be able to register to save for retirement through the Fund’s Eda Supa product. Nasfund Chief Executive Officer Ian Tarutia says this event is an important part of the Fund’s engagement with its membership, particularly as Lae, Morobe Province, has the second highest concentration of Nasfund membership. “Morobe Province accounts for more than 110,000 Nasfund members. This number is expected to increase, given the increasing activity that is taking place, particularly with major investment projects set to begin in the coming months. As a Fund, we recognize these developments, and have taken steps to ensure we are ready to meet this impending demand, both in the formal and informal sector. We are pleased to have recently opened a second member service centre in the heart of Lae city, and are continually ramping our engagements with members through employer visits, and awareness sessions. The Morobe Show provides another opportunity for the Fund to interact with our members, some of whom who may not have time during the week. First held in 1959, this show is one of the longest running annual events which showcases a variety of exhibits from across the agriculture, horticulture, livestock, commercial, industry, education and culture sectors – all sectors which provide a large part of our membership. We encourage our members to visit us at Bay 14, where our friendly staff will be more than happy to provide you with information on what your Fund is doing to add value to you while you work, while we safeguard your retirement savings, so that you are ready for tomorrow.”
