Supporting the Australian economy through superannuation investments

Supporting the Australian economy through superannuation investments

AustralianSuper is the nation’s largest superannuation fund, with more than $180 billion invested in supporting Australia’s economy while helping members achieve their best financial position in retirement.  

Here are a few examples: 

  • AustralianSuper’s $11.5b investment in the critical minerals industry. This investment will play an important role in leading Australia’s energy transition. Nearly $30 billion is allocated to real assets, impacting the daily lives of Australians, and advancing community development.
  • Investments in digitisation including assets like Indara, a leading owner and operator of tower and rooftop telecommunication sites.
  • Our investment in domestic transport logistics ie, Moorebank Logistics Park in Sydney. This state-of-the-art facility connects Port Botany to the interstate rail network.
  • A diverse range of equity raisings. Since 2014, AustralianSuper has participated in nearly 300 equity raisings, providing more than $5.5 billion to Australian companies. We’ve also committed an additional $2 billion to supporting emerging Australian companies through our local investments in venture capital funds and micro-cap companies.

The examples above illustrate the fund’s support for business growth in Australia, job creation and innovation across various sectors of our economy. As AustralianSuper continues to grow in size and scale, so too will our investments in Australia’s economy.
