UniSuper scoops pool
Rollover does enjoy Super Review's annual Super Fund of the Year awards, if only because it gives him an excuse to travel to Melbourne.
He also offers his hearty congratulations to UniSuper for having this year been named the Super Review Super Fund of the Year and to its chief executive, Kevin O'Sullivan who not only got to hold up the trophy but also scored an exclusive pass to the BNP Paribas 2016 Global Leaders Forum at Ascot in the UK.
The prize to the winning CEO has been provided by BNP Paribas Securities Services as the major sponsor of the Super Review Super Fund of the Year Awards, and Rollover reckons it is something which distinguishes the event from others in the market.
UniSuper was judged the winning super fund in 2016 thanks to the methodology of Super Review's research partner in the event, The Heron Partnership, after it had earlier been announced as the Best Industry Fund.
The judges recognised UniSuper for its competitive fee structure and well-resourced and skilled in-house administration and investment teams.
AUTHOR
The Rollover
Rollover is a jaded hack who joined the staff of Super Review nearly two decades’ ago and never managed to summon the energy to leave. Known throughout the superannuation industry as a power-luncher and gossip, Rollover spends his time humouring fund managers, eavesdropping at conferences, dozing through briefings and looking for his next free meal.

With rainy weather abound in Sydney, Rollover was sat in front of his TV watching the smorgasbord of niche documentaries free-to-air has to offer.
As a history buff, Rollover is well-aware of the importance of the role the vanguard plays in a military force, as the leader at the front of battle.
Now that crypto investing is mainstream, with Rest Super announcing it will put a portion of its funds into it, Rollover wonders whether his grandkids will think he is hip when he shows them his crypto balance in his new digital wallet.
Rollover is almost as fascinated by superannuation fund mergers as the deputy chair of the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA), Helen Rowell.
