Embracing new ways of working?
Make sure your
super keeps up.
The landscape of work is changing. More Australians are running their own businesses, freelancing, contracting, or joining the gig economy. If you're part of this change, it's important to remember that super will still play a big part in your retirement. There are small steps you can take now, like considering consolidating your accounts4, that could make a big difference to your future.
A fund that works as hard as you do
With more than 2.8 million5 members and a history of strong, long-term performance1, we’re Australia’s largest, most-trusted super fund2. We don’t pay dividends or profits to shareholders, so the money we make goes back into the fund for the benefit of members.
How your fund performs over the long-term will make a big difference to your savings for the future. At AustralianSuper, we focus on what that performance means for the net benefit of your super. That is, what your overall financial position could be after taking away admin and investment fees – it’s one of the best ways to see how funds stack up.
