Future Super vs Team Super

Compare what each fund offers, then choose investment options to put their published costs and returns side by side.

By SuperGuru Group · Research checked 11 September 2026 · Historical APRA figures to 30 June 2026

Future Super

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.

Membership

Public membership is available under the current PDS and target market determination.

Team Super

Industry fund

Team Super is the fund formed from Mine Super and TWUSUPER. Its specialist focus is transport, energy and mining.

Membership

The fund serves workers in its core industries and other eligible members. Former Mine and TWUSUPER members should check their current division and insurance documents.

Compare fees and investment returns

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.

Accounts and products

Future Super accumulation and pension.

Sources1234

Superannuation, pre-retirement pension and account-based pension.

Sources12345
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

Pre-mixed and single-asset options let members build their own mix. Pension and super defaults follow the rules for their particular account, rather than a single default being suitable for every member.

Sources12345
Insurance

Insurance is available for super accounts; it is not available for pension account holders.

Sources1234

Insurance divisions reflect the industries the fund serves. The merger included premium and definition changes, so a pre-merger quote is not enough to compare current cover.

Sources12345
Retirement income

A pension account allows regular income from retirement savings. It has separate fees and investment return information.

Sources1234

Both pre-retirement and account-based pensions are available, with their own investment and fee disclosures.

Sources12345
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

Team offers a complimentary initial appointment. Advice on how the account is invested is available at no extra cost; other personal advice has separate fees.

Sources12345
Fee details to check

Use the current option-specific total fee table, including administration and investment costs. Insurance remains separate.

Sources1234

The merger page advertises a fixed super administration charge of 75 cents a week. Add any percentage administration charge, investment costs, transaction costs and insurance from the current super PDS. Pension fees use a different schedule.

Sources12345
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

Read the option history carefully around the merger and any strategy changes. A long record can include a predecessor portfolio and is not automatically the record of every former TWUSUPER option.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Future Super

Editorial assessment

Worth researching when the stated exclusions match a person's values and the selected option matches their investment needs.

What deserves a closer look

  • Read the definitions and thresholds behind screening claims.
  • A sustainability label does not establish a suitable risk level or future return.

THE SUPERGURU VIEW

Our take on Team Super

Editorial assessment

A relevant comparison for workers whose occupation makes insurance definitions, exclusions and claims support especially important.

What deserves a closer look

  • Compare the insurance division that would cover your actual job.
  • The fixed weekly fee is only one part of total cost; it should not be used as a total-fee headline.

Before choosing between Future Super and Team Super

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.
