We’re again among the best-performing super funds – across our MySuper, Growth and Balanced Growth options – in what was a fantastic year of returns for members.

Some quick highlights are our MySuper option (for those age 35 and below), which achieved an excellent return of 22.46% for the financial year ending June 2021, boosting average yearly returns to 10.86% over the past five years.

The smartMonday Growth – Active option returned an exceptional 22.54% in the past financial year, lifting average yearly results to 9.36% for the past five years.

“In 2020/21 smartMonday members benefitted strongly from the market recovery in growth assets. Our long-term strategy – emphasising growth assets such as shares and sensible diversification – helped members get through the COVID-19 crisis and access the great returns that followed,” said smartMonday chief investment officer Ed Tomlinson.

Your investments in smartMonday are guided by global investment consultant Aon whose expertise has provided industry-leading returns for members since its launch in 2014. Keep in mind the impressive results from this financial year may not continue, and it’s important to focus on your investments’ longer-term performance and your superannuation goals.

We also want to highlight that in August, our MySuper product (renamed smartMonday Lifecycle effective 30 June 2022) ranked among the top 10 in the government's new annual MySuper performance test, according to net returns over seven years (which was based on a $50,000 account balance).

And that our suite of super products recently retained their SelectingSuper AAA Quality rating, placing them among the top third of all superannuation products.
