From the CEO

For years I have observed First State Super from afar and thought, ‘Now that’s an organisation I’d like to work for!’. It is no exaggeration when I say, this is my dream job.

Investing with integrity

You may not know this, but corporate governance plays a crucial role in providing the best investments for our members.

What the market volatility means for you

Market volatility has jumped since October last year, creating a challenging environment for super funds. We provide information about the reasons for the volatility and what you can do to manage its effects.

We’ve reduced our fees

And continue to work hard to keep our fees as competitive as we can.

We recently reviewed our pricing to see if we could provide more value for our members. The good news is we’ve reduced some fees as a result, which means more money for you.

Five Questions

We ask Damian Graham, our Chief Investment Officer, about investing and the road ahead.

Investing in the future

Your super is invested in companies that are breaking new ground.

A small but growing part of our investment portfolio is being used to fund start-up businesses developing unique products or services with global growth potential.

Focusing on financial literacy

If you’re a NSW teacher who wants to improve Australia’s financial skills, you can apply for the NSW Premier’s First State Super Financial Literacy Scholarship. The scholarship enables you to design your own study tour to help improve teaching in the area of financial literacy.
