Compare what each fund offers, then choose investment options to put their published costs and returns side by side.
Retail fund brand
Future Super offers five sustainably screened investment options and a pension product. Its exclusions are a central part of the product, so the screening policy deserves as much attention as the returns table.
Public membership is available under the current PDS and target market determination.
Retail fund
WealthFocus Super is a personal super product offering managed investments from Perpetual and other investment managers.
Designed for employees and self-employed people, with regular or one-off contributions subject to contribution rules.
Choose the actual investment pathway for each account. For lifecycle products, select the named stage relevant to you. No stage is selected automatically.
The costs and returns belong to the selected product, option or lifecycle stage.
Source: APRA Comprehensive Product Performance Package 2026, published 28 August 2026. Fees reflect the reporting year to 30 June 2026, are net of tax, use standard arrangements and exclude member-activity fees. Dollar figures are rounded. They are not a current quote. Check the latest PDS for changes, insurance premiums and any separately charged advice.
Returns are annualised historical results. Different return bases, risk levels and periods cannot be treated as interchangeable. MySuper net returns use a $50,000 representative balance even when you change the fee balance. A lifecycle stage return does not track a person moving between stages. Missing figures mean not reported, not zero. Past returns do not predict future returns. Read our method and APRA's definitions.
| What to compare | Future Super | Perpetual WealthFocus |
|---|---|---|
| Membership and access | Public membership is available under the current PDS and target market determination. Sources1234 | Designed for employees and self-employed people, with regular or one-off contributions subject to contribution rules. Sources123 |
| Accounts and products | Future Super accumulation and pension. Sources1234 | WealthFocus Super Plan and pension products. Sources123 |
| Investment choices | Sustainable Moderate, Sustainable Balanced Growth, Sustainable Alternatives Growth, Sustainable Growth and Sustainable High Growth. The fund says every option screens out defined fossil-fuel, weapons and gambling companies. Sources1234 | Members can select managed funds across different asset classes and managers. Use the super investment menu because other WealthFocus investment products have different tax and product structures. Sources123 |
| Insurance | Insurance is available for super accounts; it is not available for pension account holders. Sources1234 | Optional insurance is available within super. The current insurance disclosure sets eligibility, cover and cost. Sources123 |
| Retirement income | A pension account allows regular income from retirement savings. It has separate fees and investment return information. Sources1234 | A pension account allows members to choose the amount and frequency of payments within the account rules. Sources123 |
| Advice and support | Account-related coaching and personal advice are generally included, with exceptions such as some pension advice. The service does not cover comprehensive advice about all outside assets. Sources1234 | Consider the product with an adviser if selecting and maintaining several managed funds; clarify any advice fee separately. Sources123 |
| Fee details to check | Use the current option-specific total fee table, including administration and investment costs. Insurance remains separate. Sources1234 | Use the WealthFocus Super PDS and investment menu. Include administration and underlying manager charges, plus any advice and insurance costs. Sources123 |
| Comparing investment performance | Check inception dates and any option changes. Ethical screening changes the investment universe, so compare risk and portfolio composition as well as fees. Sources1234 | Compare the exact super option and its fee basis. Returns from a WealthFocus investment fund outside super may have different tax treatment. Sources123 |

Use the membership rules to establish which accounts are available to you. Then compare the total price of the investment option and cover you need. A lower fee or higher historical return alone does not tell you which fund is suitable.
Ask both funds to confirm insurance acceptance, exclusions, waiting periods and whether cover would change when you leave your employer. Obtain advice before giving up a defined benefit or an insurance policy you may not be able to replace. ASIC Moneysmart explains the comparison checks.
