This award cements UniSuper’s position as one of Australia’s best value superannuation funds, clearly demonstrating that it is delivering on its mission of shaping a brighter future for all the thinkers, creators and investigators according to Chief Executive Officer Peter Chun.

“The timing for this accolade comes at a significant moment in the history of UniSuper, as we are now open to all Australians.

SuperRating’s Executive Director, Kirby Rappel, said that UniSuper’s competitive fees and commitment to member education stood out from the rest.

“Competition has continued to intensify across the industry and UniSuper was a standout in SuperRatings’ assessment of funds this year. We believe the best funds must not only provide members with strong performance and competitive fees but that additional areas such as access to advice services and member education can significantly improve members’ ultimate retirement outcomes.
