Compare Aware Super with your super fund

See how Aware Super stacks up against other industry and retail funds using Applecheck, a third-party research comparison tool from Chant West.

Compare our super accounts with AppleCheck

Chant West is a leading third-party research, data and analytics provider. Their AppleCheck is an easy-to-use comparison tool that helps you compare super and pension products on a fair, 'apples with apples' basis. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

 

Would you have been better off with Aware Super?

While it's easier to compare fees or performance independently of each other, it makes sense to look at a net return analysis. A net return analysis considers overall performance over a period minus fees, costs and taxes. This gives you a clearer picture of how your superannuation investments performed.

This graph assumes the following; a $50,000 starting account balance; employer contributions based on a starting salary of $50,000 p.a.; salary increases of 3.5% p.a. and contributions tax of 15%. The Net Benefit refers to a member's investment earnings over the time period of 15 years to 31 March 2026, less any administration, investment and member fees for options within the SuperRatings Growth Index (77-90% growth allocation). The net benefit compares Aware Super to the median of 53, 48 and 42 Not for Profit funds over 7, 10 and 15 years and 156, 109 and 58 all super funds over 7, 10 and 15 years which is inclusive of Retail, Industry, Corporate and Government funds. Net Benefit provided by SuperRatings’ Net Benefit Tool, accessed 18th May 2026.’ Past performance is not a reliable indicator or a guarantee of future performance. Outcomes vary between individual funds. View net benefit methodology
