Investment Options
You can choose the investment option that best suits your needs. Local Super’s 6 investment options each have specific investment performance objectives. To achieve these objectives, each option has different asset allocations and some of them have a mix of asset classes. This diversification helps to spread the investment risk and minimise the impact of market fluctuations on the overall investment. Each option’s asset allocation is considered to be the most likely combination to achieve its investment objectives in the long term.
