Aware Super has won the Money Magazine award for long term investment performance for the third year in a row.
Aware won the "Ultra Long-Term Performance" award for its Future Saver High Growth investment option.
This option, where most Aware Super members are invested, returned 11.91% for the 2024-25 financial year, and an average annual return of 8.83% over 10 years.[P2]
The award recognises Aware Super's ability to deliver "ultra long-term performance" through a highly diversified portfolio constructed to produce consistently strong risk-adjusted returns.
The Money Magazine award caps off an outstanding year for Aware Super, which won Superfund of the Year at the SuperRatings Awards and Pension Fund of the Year' titles at the Chant West Awards, both for the second-year running.
Aware Super Chief Investment Officer Simon Warner (pictured) welcomed the recognition, noting it spoke to what was most important to members.
"We're proud to have won the Ultra Long Term Performance Award for the third year in a row," Mr Warner said.
"Delivering consistent long-term returns is what matters most to helping our almost 1.2 million members achieve their retirement goals.”
"Aware Super's strengths are our investment expertise, our size and our highly diversified, actively managed investment portfolio.
"Our investment team of over 150 professionals in Australia and London search globally for investments exposed to promising long-term growth trends such as the digital economy and the energy transition.”
"With more than $210 billion in assets under management we have the scale to buy large, quality assets anywhere in the world to deliver superior returns for members."
The Future Saver High Growth Option is a part of Aware's core MySuper Lifecycle product, which uses a lifecycle investment approach, actively managing the level of investment risk for members as they age.
Future Saver High Growth has a higher allocation to growth assets to help younger members grow their savings, while older members in MySuper Lifecycle automatically move to a more balanced profile as they near retirement to safeguard their savings and manage longevity risk.
