Invested in our members and our industry

posted on 30.09.2020

REI Super is one of the oldest industry super funds in Australia, delivering highly rated superannuation services to members for over 40 years. We understand that investing in our members and our industry delivers great value for all of us.

Professional development, product development and service

REI Super works closely with all the major real estate institutes, franchises and employer bodies to actively support professional development and advocate for professional standards in the industry. We do this in a number of ways, through sponsorship of programmes and with our business development team providing support, advice and delivery of information sessions to new members.

For employers, we make it easy to comply with government super legislation, provide regular updates via newsletters, display alerts on our online portal, make visits with field staff and problem solve via our Helpline. 

We keep members up to date with things that may affect you, provide advice on growing your nest egg and develop industry-specific products, like income protection insurance that takes commission income into account, and develop investment options that cater for all levels of risk and stages of life.

Invested in high quality property assets

Listed and unlisted property together form a core investment strategy for the fund and is a sector in which many of our members work. Unlisted property, in particular, holds assets not listed on the stock exchange and are generally not available for individuals to invest. They provide a great source of strong, stable, long-term returns to our portfolio, and form approximately 50% of our property investment portfolio.

Our investment in this sector is through our long standing investment manager, Industry Super Property Trust (ISPT). Since its inception in 1994 through to 30 June 2020, the ISPT core fund has returned an average 9.00% per annum (net of fees), an outstanding result. 

At 30 June 2020, the ISPT core fund was valued at a huge $16.2 Billion and includes properties around Australia such as:

  • Melbourne’s GPO
  • Westfield Doncaster and Casseldon Place
  • Sydney’s Liberty Place
  • Canberra’s 2 National Circuit
  • Perth’s 100 St George Terrace.
