Active insights

Welcome to Active Insights, our newly designed monthly newsletter. We have rebranded from Local Government Super (LGS) to Active Super to broaden our appeal to members and to encourage members to engage with their super.

Our new name captures our long-standing and active pursuit of investments that deliver solid long-term returns, as well as our active involvement with members and their local government employers. We are the fund for members who want their super invested in a way that generates good investment returns and does so in a responsible way.

The Economic Update from our Chief Investment Officer Craig Turnbull will continue to be a key feature of the bulletin along with news of any significant moves in the superannuation industry and how they may affect you.

In this edition we look at what’s changing with super as we approach the end of the financial year.

Many of you have embraced our rebrand and we have included a ‘Word on the Street’ section showcasing some of the positive feedback received.

Please know that Active Super will continue to invest, service and operate efficiently in order to deliver positive long-term results for all our members.

Please join us on the exciting journey ahead.
