Average annual return to June 30 of selected financial year ranges 1, 3, 5 or 10. Returns are net of investment fees and costs, transaction costs and taxes. Rounding has been applied to the graph to the nearest dollar. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Financial year-to-date performance 

Subject to investment market movements, returns for the full financial year may be higher or lower than the returns for the financial year-to-date period.


Historical performance results

In the long term, one of the most significant factors affecting your retirement benefit will be the investment performance after costs, fees and taxes are deducted. When you're looking at a super fund you should check what sort of performance the fund has achieved and whether you have a choice of investment options.

You should also examine the investment objectives of the fund or investment option you will be investing in, both to assess the level of risk involved and to establish whether they have been meeting their goals. However, remember that past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance.

Initial change to unit pricing

HESTA changed from crediting rates to unit pricing in December 2016.

Investment performance figures for the week 30 November – 6 December 2016 is a combination of a crediting rate and unit prices that applied over that period.

Returns and unit prices on the effective date selected show valuations of assets at least 2 days prior. For example, selecting an effective date of 4 July 2023 will display the actual performance and pricing on 30 June 2023. Returns are presented daily as of 23 October 2021.
