AustSafe Super has been nominated as a Rising Star Finalist in the SuperRatings Fund of the Year Awards. This is the second time AustSafe Super has been nominated as a Rising Star Finalist in the SuperRatings Fund of the Year Awards.
The Rising Star Award seeks to recognise the fund that has excelled in terms of enhancing their value proposition to members through significantly improved services and benefits.
Craig Stevens, CEO of AustSafe Super says the industry super fund for rural and regional Australia has worked hard amid a raft of regulatory changes and reviews to deliver outstanding value for its members.
“This nomination is a pleasing acknowledgement for the Fund at a time when competition is increasing in the superannuation industry,” said Mr Stevens.
“The nomination recognises the hard work and effort that everyone at AustSafe Super has contributed over the last year improving our capabilities and the benefits for members.
“Rural and regional Australia has been doing it tough for a while now, and it’s nice to know we are helping in a small way by offering low fees,* outstanding performance and a raft of financial education and mental health programs to better support our members.
“This has been topped off with excellent returns on AustSafe Super’s MySuper (Balanced) investment option of 10.56%p.a. for the past financial year, and the third consecutive year of double digit returns for AustSafe Super’s MySuper (Balanced) investment option.
“These results reflect our strong history of returns to members, with the MySuper (Balanced) option producing above median results over 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 years#,” said Mr Stevens.
SuperRatings, an independent research company, helps Australians make informed decisions about their superannuation.
The awards will be presented at the 13th Annual SuperRatings Fund of the Year Awards on October 13.
