Administration fees and costs
Investment fees and costs and transaction costs
Fees and costs are indicative only and are based on costs for the year ended 30 June 2024, including several components which are estimates. The actual amount you will be charged in subsequent financial years will depend on the actual costs incurred in those years. Past costs may not necessarily be an indicator of future costs.
ProductReview.com.au has awarded us Best Superannuation Fund in the Industry Super category for our strong investment performance, competitive fees and costs, and outstanding customer service in 2021, 2022 and 20231.
When you’re choosing a super fund, one way to figure out how well a fund is performing is to look at the ‘net benefit’.
What is the net benefit? The net benefit is your investment earnings, after any fees and taxes have been taken out.
We were awarded the SuperRatings Net Benefit award in 2025 (and in 2024), which recognises HESTA as the Australian super fund with the best net benefit outcomes delivered to members over the short and long term.1
The numbers are important. But at HESTA, we also invest in and for people who make our world better.
