General Warning

This material is of a general nature and does not take into account your personal objectives, situation or needs. Before making a decision about AustralianSuper, consider your financial requirements and read our Product Disclosure Statement, available at www.australiansuper.com or by calling 1300 300 273.

Investment returns are not guaranteed as all investments carry some risk. Past performance gives no indication of future returns.

In calculating historical returns for AustralianSuper, where only one of the merging funds (ARF or STA) previously offered an equivalent to an option in the new product suite, the returns for that option, have been used. Where both funds offered the equivalent option, the returns have been asset weighted across both options on a monthly basis, where possible.
