Superannuation Investment Performance

Australian Super Funds - Best Investment Returns over 1 and 10 Years

Listed below are the Top 10 best performing balanced Super funds over the financial year ending June 30, 2019 according to SuperRatings.

In contrast, SuperRatings found that in the ten years to June 30, 2019 the median balanced returned was 6.9% on an annualised basis, slightly down on the average annual return of 7.3% since the introduction of a compulsory superannuation guarantee (SG) payment in 1992. The ten best performing balanced funds over the last 10 years appear in the Table below. The important thing to note - apart from several funds appearing in both lists, which says something for the robustness of their investment processes - is that 2018/19 has still been a very good year for super returns, despite negative investment returns in the early part of the year.
