At QSuper, we are honoured to be recognised by awards. More important though is the tremendous responsibility we have as custodians of our members’ retirement savings. Awards are a validation that we are succeeding for you.
The annual Chant West Super Fund Awards are held to recognise and reward those funds that have achieved excellence in the industry and are doing a great job for their members. On behalf of our almost 50,000 members currently in retirement, QSuper was honoured to receive the Chant West Pension Fund of the Year award 2019.
Pension Fund of the Year
The pension fund award recognises excellence across a range of key criteria, namely: investments, member services, fees, organisational strengths. The award relates to the typical retiree member, who has an account balance of about $200,000.

QSuper Head of Product and Services, Ben Hillier, described winning Pension Fund of the Year for the fourth time as an extraordinary honour.
“Is at retirement that the proof our strategies and member focus is required. It is at that point when our members, perhaps, rely on us more than ever before,” he said.
“The trust that our members place in us as custodians is humbling. At QSuper, we’re proud of the Pension product we’ve developed, and the low fees, great value and increased flexibility it provides our members. I’m particularly proud of our unique Income Account Transfer Bonus, which has delivered more than $22 million to over 14,000 members so far.”
