Super funds charge fees to cover the cost of managing your super and investments. As Australia’s largest fund1, we use our size and scale to help set low admin fees for members3. Lower fees mean more of your super stays invested where it could continue to grow for your future. See how AustralianSuper’s admin and investment fees compare with other funds7.
