Change is complete
We’ve moved to a new Superannuation administration provider. Find out what you need to know about the transition and how you may be affected.
Thank you for your patience while we worked in the background to process transactions and migrate customer data to change our superannuation administrator.
We are excited to be able to launch our new member portal to our Super members. To ensure you have a smooth experience, we’re rolling out these invitations in phases so we can provide you with support every step of the way. Look out for an email from us with simple instructions on how to activate your portal access.
In this transition, the core elements of Australian Ethical Super have not changed. Elements such as investing, ethics, and our contact centre have remained in the capable hands of the Australian Ethical team.
In the meantime, forms can be found here or please feel free to call us on 1800 021 227 8.30am to 5.30pm AEST/ AEDT Mon-Fri for any additional support. Please monitor this website for further updates.
