achieve returns (after tax and other costs) over rolling ten years of 1.5% above "CPI*".
Please note: Returns are not guaranteed.

All returns shown above are net effective earning rates (i.e. after tax and some fees). The FYTD Return and the 1yr rolling return are not annualised. The returns for all other periods are compound annualised averages. Refer to the Energy Super Annual Report for more information on how rates are calculated.
Investments can go up and down. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance.
* CPI is measured by the All Groups Consumer Price Index For Australia.
** The total indirect fees and costs (including the indirect administration fee) is the estimated cost for the 2018/19 period.
