Investment News Update

30 June 2025 Investment Changes

At Media Super, we offer a range of investment options to suit our members’ goals, time frames and preferred levels of risk. We invest across a wide range of asset classes in Australia and overseas including shares, property, infrastructure, private equity, fixed interest and cash.

Each investment option has set investment objectives and we review these objectives every year to ensure they meet members’ needs. When we do this, we look at a range of factors including the age of our members, the economic environment and how we expect different types of assets to perform.

As a result of the FY2024/25 annual review, we have made the following changes effective 30 June 2025:
