A Platinum rating is the highest awarded by SuperRatings and marks the PSSap as a ‘best value for money fund’ which provides features that should assist most individuals to meet their retirement goals. This year a Platinum rating was only awarded to 30 (15%) of the 200 funds SuperRatings assessed.

The PSSap continues to grow – with 45,000 members and $330 million funds under management as at end-March 2007, after under just two years of operating.
The great advantage of the PSSap is that it is managed by ARIA, a trustee with over 30 years experience providing superannuation products and services to Australian Government employees.
Being part of ARIA means the PSSap also benefits from the economies of scale afforded by the ARIA pooled investment trust which represents around $17 billion funds under management.
Selecting Super offers an up-to-date interactive resource that not only links you directly with super funds, but also provides calculators, online fund comparisons and lists of the top funds.

*It’s important you know that like most super funds, the PSSap pays a subscription fee to ratings agencies to ensure members have access to information to compare funds. These fees do not in any way influence the assessments – read more about the assessment process undertaken by SelectingSuper and SuperRatings.
