How we invest your super to deliver strong, long-term returns

When super was introduced for all Australians in 1992, we opened our doors as First State Super. Today, we’re Aware Super, one of Australia’s largest super funds, and open to everyone.

Everything we do is to help our members end up with more money in retirement. Our goal is simple: to be super helpful and do what's right with your money so that you can have your best possible retirement.
