The Superannuation Monopoly: Do You Really Want Just 18 Players Controlling $14 Trillion?

Super Funds Are Shrinking – But Not in a Good Way
The Australian superannuation industry is consolidating fast. Mercer predicts that the number of super funds will drop from 89 to just 32 in a decade—and by 2049, only 18 funds will control $14 trillion in retirement savings.
That means less competition, fewer choices, and potentially weaker returns. Do we really want our financial future concentrated in so few hands?
More Money, Fewer Choices – Who Really Wins?
While super savings will grow from $2.9 trillion today to $14 trillion by 2049, everyday investors will have fewer options. With fewer funds, we risk:
- Lower returns – Large funds favour safe, slow-growth investments.
- Higher fees – Less competition means more costs for you.
- Overseas investments – Your super could be funding global markets instead of Australian growth.
The Danger of a Superannuation Oligopoly
Fewer funds mean less accountability. With only 18 controlling trillions, they dictate where your money goes. This isn’t just about numbers—it’s about control.
