Clark Equipment chooses MLC Business Super
MLC Business Super has secured the rights to manage the $15 million Clark Equipment Australia Group staff superannuation fund.
The decision was based on which superannuation fund manager provided the best full value proposition, including cost, member benefits, and insurance.
General manager of MLC Business Super, Michael Mulholland, said the win demonstrates the firm's commitment to the corporate superannuation market.
"Over the last 12 months alone, we've created 16 additional roles focused exclusively on developing product and service offerings to our clients," he said.
Mulholland said the firm has also increased its market presence and expanded its team of relationship managers and account managers to support clients. He also flagged a range of product enhancements currently "in the pipeline".
Clark Equipment Australia Group chief executive Robert Hammond said the transition from the company's previous super fund has been smooth, with "regular communications and even on-site visits to speak with employees".
MLC Business Super is part of MLC and NAB Wealth, and provides superannuation services to small to medium enterprises. Clark Equipment is a manufacturer and distributor of industrial equipment, with approximately 500 employees in Australia and New Zealand.

A major super fund has defended its use of private markets in a submission to ASIC, asserting that appropriate governance and information-sharing practices are present in both public and private markets.
A member body representing some prominent wealth managers is concerned super funds’ dominance is sidelining small companies in capital markets.
Earlier this month, several Australian superannuation funds fell victim to credential stuffing attacks, which saw a small number of members lose more than $500,000.
Small- to medium-sized funds have become collateral damage in an "imperfect" model for super industry levies, a financial institution has said.
