MLC MySuper investment performance update

MySuper Growth Portfolio delivered a strong 9.8% to 30 June 2024

Plum’s MySuper Growth Portfolio—where most of our MySuper members are invested—delivered a strong 9.8% return for the 12 months to 30 June 2024.  

Especially strong returns from global shares, which were powered by impressive earnings from a handful of technology stocks, contributed to the MySuper Growth Portfolio’s strong financial year return.

The Portfolio’s alternative credit strategies – loans made by investors to commercial borrowers - also helped to deliver the competitive performance for members.

In this article, Steve Gamerov, Head of Diversified Portfolios at MLC Asset Management digs more deeply into the drivers of performance over the financial year and how the MySuper Growth Portfolio is being positioned for the future.

Members in our ready-made portfolios also enjoyed healthy returns for the financial year ranging from 7.9% for the MLC Conservative Balanced option; a strong 12.2% return for the MLC High Growth option; and a return of 16.1% for the MLC Aggressive option.
