Industry super fund Vision Super yesterday hit $10 billion in funds under management (FUM), doubling its size in the last five years.

Vision Super chief executive, Stephen Rowe, said that the fund was looking to continue its upward growth.
“We’re looking to grow significantly over the next few years - $10 billion is a nice milestone, but I’m hoping we hit some even bigger ones in the near future,” he said.
