This announcement follows on from a year in which Hostplus’ Balanced (MySuper) option delivered a net return of 21.32%1, the option’s best result in its 32-year history. The Fund’s recent results also saw nine out of ten Hostplus members invested in options that delivered their best ever single-year return during the 2020-21 financial year2.
APRA’s performance test places greater emphasis on a fund’s longer-term results. With this in mind, Hostplus’ MySuper Balanced option has also been ranked by independent researcher SuperRatings as one of the top 3 default options over rolling 5, 7, 10, 15 and 20 year periods1.
Confirmation from APRA today of Hostplus’ pass mark is a further indicator that the Fund is achieving its longer-term net benefit investment outcomes in its flagship MySuper Balanced option. Hostplus’ consistently low and fixed3 fund administration fee, which has been unchanged for 17 years, has also contributed to this result.
