Australian Retirement Trust is the super fund formed through the merger of Sunsuper and QSuper. We’re one of Australia’s largest super funds and proud to take care of over $200 billion in retirement savings for more than two million members. As a fund that works for members, not shareholders, we work in members’ best interests, and are committed to returning profits to them as lower fees and better services.
For the past 10 years, Sunsuper played a major role in bringing Riverfire, Queensland’s largest community celebration, to the Brisbane community. As Australian Retirement Trust we are proud to continue this legacy to unite Brisbane in celebration of our wonderful river city.
