Industry superannuation fund Mine Wealth + Wellbeing has changed its name to Mine Super in a bid to better reflect its heritage and refreshed purpose and vision.
Mine Super chief executive officer, Harry Mitchell, said the fund’s evolution would continue to help members achieve exceptional retirement outcomes.
He said the brand evolution was an important milestone in the execution of Mine Super’s new strategic plan, but that the fund remained “of the mining community and for the mining community”.
“Although we’ve changed our name to Mine Super, our core values remain the same: a commitment to the financial future of our members, and a pledge to have their back.”
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.
