For the analysis, NAB examined data taken from 14 of Australia’s largest super funds, with a focus on their MySuper or similar investment products. Taken together, the survey covers more than a million individual holdings across listed, unlisted, and fixed interest assets, representing about 80% of the industry’s assets under management for these type of investment options.
The data has been made available, in highly granular form, for the first time in 2022 under the Corporations Amendment (Portfolio Holdings Disclosure) Regulations 2021 which came into force on November 11, 2021.
