It was great that Hesta divested from Transfield, but even better that AEI never invested in the fir

published

I sought out a super company that would allow me to not worry that my retirement income won't come at the expense of others. That ethical investment faired the global financial crisis relatively unscathed was a great bonus but no coincidence.

All investments should follow AEI.

published

This is investing making a difference and the world a better place. If all investors did this we could probably eliminate poverty and war.

Best way to invest

published

Easy to use, good service and the most worthwhile investment I can make as I'm lucky enough to be able to invest.

Great returns and a clear conscience!

published

Professional service, great returns and they even have a magazine and Facebook feed that I find interesting. Just wonder why I didn't switch earlier!



Happy with AEI

published

Very happy with their service and investment products. Good to have ethical options for our money that can make a difference in the world.

I'm glad this exists.

published

Using Australian Ethical Investments for my superannuation fund has been very easy. They have great customer service, low fees, and products that make good sense. Their website is easy to use to track my balance. I have had no complaints in several years of dealing with them, and my questions are always resolved in a timely and professional manner.

Great return. Peace of mind!

published

All round easy to use Super. Have always been responsive when I've had questions. Happy that my money is doing good things for my grandchildren.

Positive Economics

published

Great people work for this company. Rare to see making money and healing the planet. Even if you didn't care about justice, environment and honesty this would still be the best place to put your money. If you do, then there is nowhere else.

Best Super in Australia

published

This super gets great returns and you can feel good that your money is invested ethically. I can think of no reason not to join Australian Ethical.

Socially conscious

published

Niche market products doing good things. Guilt free investments. I highly recommend getting involved. Thank you for the work that you do.

Stop the wars

published

It is time for individuals to take responsibility for the wars we wage on oil-rich countries and on our environment. We need to stop fossil fuel dependence and the only way to do that is to stop unknowingly investing in the extractive sector and actively fund and build renewable energy sources. This idea is not only fantastic but it is our duty to embrace it and join in.

Only way for the future

published

Investing in mine, my family's and future generations is a high priority for me and my partner. Investing in anything other than renewables at this point in history would show a lack of intelligence and the greed that exists in present day society.

Very happy

published

I'm a client from sometime ago and have been very happy with the choice of investment as well as the return on my super and minimal fees. Would recommend

money being used for good things

published

It is very reassuring to know that all this money is being invested ethically, supporting good projects, supporting the planet, supporting us.

The necessary change to future investment in sustainable practices

Great Super

published

I was skeptical at first of the returns I would be getting on my Super. but I still wanted to invest my super ethically. Well Australian Ethical, you proved me wrong. I am getting better returns on my Super than I ever have before.

Great super fund! Highly recommend it to all

Sad to have left.

published

When the opportunity presented itself, I was looking for an ethical company. I heard about Aust Ethical, read about their thinking, talked extensively with them, and decided that my superannuation would be safe with them, as well as being used well. Having been a single parent and part-time worker, the amount was not large. Sadly, just recently I needed to close my account, as the Aged Pension doesn't quite allow ends to meet. Throughout, they have been helpful and informative. I feel that my money has done some good stuff while it was in their hands. I recommend them unhesitatingly.

Finally - an ethical option

published

If we are forced to let Superannuation fund keep and manage our money, then we at least have to be able to direct them to invest that money ethically. I don't care about the economics of it, I care that money is not directed in my name towards polluting or environmentally destructive areas. Instead it supports green investment and green innovation

The Best Super Fund

published

Australian Ethical has a great investment philosophy, service, and competitive returns.

This is the super fund for anyone who cares about the kind of world we live in.

If only more people invested as well as these guys...

I have super with AE and I'm now considering putting money into one of the AE managed funds. So far I like the approach AE takes. The fees are pretty high though. How can you justify this?

Hi Jimbobaloobop,
It's always nice to hear that one of our Super members is considering one of our Managed Funds as well! We're glad you like our ethical approach to investing - and you would already be aware of our competitive performance returns.
Fees are about many things, including the level of engagement of the fund managers, and a matter of scale. Australian Ethical has a particularly high level of engagement, because of both our ethical screening, and our active investment style. Despite this, since 2013 we’ve more than halved our fees. It’s just one of the ways that as we grow, we’re making sure to share the benefits with our investors. You might also be interested to know that we are one of the best valued ethical investment funds in Australia when you take into account what our product offers. You may also find that other ‘ethical funds’ may not offer a comprehensive ethical screening process, for example only screening certain negative industries, or best of industry.
You may be interested in some of our wholesale funds, which offer the funds at a substantially reduced fee. You can find more information on our wholesale funds here: https://www.australianethical.com.au/managed-funds/fees/.
You can find more on the performance of our managed funds here: https://www.australianethical.com.au/managed-funds/performance-and-returns/
If you want to discuss our investment options, don't hesitate to call us on 1800 021 227.
