What future is your super funding?

We’ve created the table below to help you find out if your super fund is investing your retirement savings into coal, oil and gas.

Superannuation allows Australians the opportunity to retire with comfort and security. But what if the super we retire with has been funding environmental destruction and runaway climate change? What if, by investing in fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas, our super funds deliver us a polluted world to retire into?

Find out which super funds are invested in companies that are actively undermining the climate goals set out in the Paris Agreement, and take action to tell your fund to lift its game on climate action.

What is the Climate Wreckers Index?

The Climate Wreckers Index comprises 190 publicly-listed companies from all over the world with the biggest plans to expand the scale of the fossil fuel industry. The “Exposure to Climate Wreckers Index” column in the table below shows the extent to which each super fund investment option is invested in these climate-wrecking companies.

A relatively small number of companies globally are responsible for the lion’s share of investment in new fossil fuel production and generation projects. Despite being small in number, these companies’ fossil fuel expansion plans alone could add the equivalent of almost 200 years of Australia’s national annual emissions. Analysis by Market Forces (see: marketforces.org.au/climatewreckersindex) shows the average large Australian super fund’s default option has over 6% of its members’ share investments in these climate wrecking companies. Continued investment in any company pursuing new or expanded fossil fuel projects is indefensible. I cannot stand for my super fund to be invested in any such companies. Years of investors claiming to change companies and bring about climate action through engagement has clearly failed to stop these companies pursuing new fossil fuel projects and business strategies incompatible with the Paris Agreement. Even after five years of the world’s largest investor engagement initiative, Climate Action 100+, none of its 166 target companies have fully aligned their capital expenditures with the Paris climate goals. Claiming that remaining invested in companies expanding fossil fuels is leading to better climate outcomes is akin to greenwashing, something that ASIC is starting to clamp down harder on. More than half of Australian super funds (by assets under management) have now divested from thermal coal miners Whitehaven and New Hope in their active holdings. Several funds, including AustralianSuper, UniSuper and Vision Super, have also seen the writing on the wall for the oil and gas industry and started divesting from the likes of Woodside and Santos. Most recently, NGS Super became the very first industry fund to implement an exclusion policy on pure play oil and gas producers, like Woodside and Santos, in an important step towards the fund’s goal of achieving a carbon neutral investment portfolio by 2030. There are absolutely no excuses left for our fund not to implement the same (or better) climate ambitions and actions. I therefore demand that the fund takes immediate action to end its investments in all companies pursuing new and expanded coal, oil and gas projects, publicly divesting current holdings and implementing a clear policy to exclude any such investment in the future.

Continued investment in any company pursuing new or expanded fossil fuel projects is indefensible. I cannot stand for my super fund to be invested in any such companies. I was disappointed to see Market Forces’ analysis showing Active Super’s High Growth option has increased its listed equity investments in companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry from 6.08% to 10.02% over the six months to 30 June 2022. However, I also note that the Active Super board approved some restrictions in oil and gas companies in early 2022. When will Active Super publicly disclose this list? The fund must not only be transparent with its members about which companies it has divested from (and by how much), but go further and rule out all investment in the likes of Woodside, Santos, and all other companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry. I also understand Active Super is exploring a merger with Vision Super, which currently excludes oil and gas producers from its active holdings. If both funds agree to this merger, Active Super needs to ensure the combined fund implements a comprehensive climate policy that excludes all companies expanding fossil fuels. Years of investors claiming to change companies and bring about climate action through engagement has clearly failed to stop these companies pursuing new fossil fuel projects and business strategies incompatible with the Paris Agreement.

However, I am aware that this option didn’t appear to have any investment exposure to thermal coal miners Whitehaven and New Hope at the latest two disclosure dates. Has ART fully divested from thermal coal companies? If so, when will we see this decision anchored in policy? ART must now go further and rule out investment in the likes of Woodside, Santos, and all other companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry.

Continued investment in any company pursuing new or expanded fossil fuel projects is indefensible. I cannot stand for my super fund to be invested in any such companies. I was disappointed to see Market Forces’ analysis showing AustralianSuper’s Balanced option has increased its listed equity investments in companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry from 4.42% to 8.51% over the six months to 30 June 2022. In particular, Market Forces estimates this option has increased its stake in Woodside by more than 100%, on top of the share allocation attributable to the BHP Petroleum merger.[1] Why has AustralianSuper changed its tune on Woodside and suddenly bought up so many shares in this climate pariah? This move flies in the face of AustralianSuper’s net zero by 2050 commitment and support for the Paris climate goals. AustralianSuper must implement a policy to rule out investments in the likes of Woodside and Santos, and all other companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry.

To Australian Ethical, I am glad to be a member of a fund that does not invest in companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry during a time when global emissions need to be declining immediately and steeply. Only a relatively small number of companies globally are responsible for the lion’s share of investment in new fossil fuel production and generation projects. Despite being small in number, these companies’ fossil fuel expansion plans alone could add the equivalent of almost 200 years of Australia’s national annual emissions. Analysis by Market Forces (see: marketforces.org.au/climatewreckersindex) shows the average large Australian super fund’s default option has over 6% of its members’ share investments in these climate wrecking companies. Our fund has something to be proud of: our exposure to these climate wreckers is 0% (in the investment option profiled by Market Forces). However, there is always more work to be done. Clearly, companies that are still expanding fossil fuels either cannot or will not align their business strategies with the climate goals of the Paris Agreement, which is why our fund has made the active decision to exclude them from our portfolio. Yet there are still companies within our portfolio that need a nudge in the right direction to fully align their business plans with the Paris climate goals. I therefore urge the fund to continue to engage with its portfolio companies and investment managers and keep driving the positive change we need to see. Divestment from companies that either cannot or will not align with global climate goals is the responsible thing to do. However, where a company shows a serious commitment to aligning its strategy with the Paris Agreement, there is certainly a reason to push for change through investor stewardship. Sincerely,

Despite being small in number, these companies’ fossil fuel expansion plans alone could add the equivalent of almost 200 years of Australia’s national annual emissions. Continued investment in any company pursuing new or expanded fossil fuel projects is indefensible. I cannot stand for my super fund to be invested in any such companies. I note Market Forces’ analysis (see: marketforces.org.au/climatewreckersindex) showing Aware Super’s High Growth option had the lowest exposure (3.5%) in its listed equities investments to companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry – of the options in the study – at 31 December 2021. However, I was shocked to learn this exposure has almost doubled over the six month period to 30 June 2022. This backslide makes it clear Aware must up its ambition and implement a policy to rule out investment in the likes of Woodside, Santos, and all other companies expanding the fossil fuel industry. Years of investors claiming to change companies and bring about climate action through engagement has clearly failed to stop these companies pursuing new fossil fuel projects and business strategies incompatible with the Paris Agreement.

Claiming that remaining invested in companies expanding fossil fuels is leading to better climate outcomes is akin to greenwashing, something that ASIC is starting to clamp down harder on. I understand Aware Super has started to reduce investment exposure to the likes of Woodside and Santos through its low carbon benchmarking approach. However, this approach is not good enough. NGS Super recently became the very first industry fund to implement an exclusion policy on pure play oil and gas producers, like Woodside and Santos, in an important step towards the fund’s goal of achieving a carbon neutral investment portfolio by 2030. Aware Super is fast becoming a climate laggard.

Why doesn’t Cbus disclose the specific impact of its stranded asset framework on its investment in companies with a high climate and/or asset stranding risk? And how does the framework allow Cbus to increase exposure to companies like Woodside and Santos, which are actively undermining climate action and exacerbating stranded asset risk by pursuing new oil and gas projects?

This is nothing short of appalling. How can Hostplus seriously claim to support the goal of net zero by 2050 when it invests members’ retirement savings in the likes of Whitehaven, New Hope, Woodside and Santos? Hostplus’ net zero claims are just empty words without full divestment from the companies undermining that goal by recklessly expanding the fossil fuel industry. I was also disappointed to see Hostplus’ comments in the media in July 2022 about the fund maintaining full exposure to the fossil fuel sector.[1] Hostplus’ membership base is typically younger than most industry funds, and the decisions that the fund makes today may significantly impact the quality of life its members enjoy in the future. Super funds must invest in a way that provides a safe future for their members to retire into, and this involves understanding and mitigating climate risk. Years of investors claiming to change companies and bring about climate action through engagement has clearly failed to stop these companies pursuing new fossil fuel projects and business strategies incompatible with the Paris Agreement.

To NGS Super, I was thrilled to see NGS become the very first industry fund to implement an exclusion policy on pure play oil and gas producers and fully divest from the likes of Woodside and Santos. Well done showing climate leadership! However, we still have work to do. One of the biggest threats to our chances of a stable climate future is the massive pipeline of proposed gas power projects in Asia, which would lock in decades of emissions, delay the transition to renewable energy sources, and in many cases devastate local communities and ecosystems. A number of companies heavily involved in these gas power expansion plans were identified in NGS’ portfolio holdings disclosures, and are not captured by the fund’s fossil fuel exclusions. I urge NGS to divest from the climate-wrecking companies driving expansion of the gas power sector, as investment in any company pursuing new or expanded fossil fuel projects is inconsistent with the climate goals of the Paris Agreement. Although I was disappointed to see that NGS’ Diversified MySuper option had over 5.5% of its listed equity investments in companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry as at 31 December 2021, it was encouraging to see this figure reduced to 5.31% at 30 June 2022, a clear indicator of the fund’s policy in practice. I will be looking forward to seeing what action NGS takes next to reduce this figure to 0% and end its investments in all companies pursuing new and expanded fossil fuel projects. The fund has taken a huge step forward in publicly divesting from oil and gas producers: now let’s extend that to exclude all companies expanding fossil fuels for good. Sincerely,

I therefore demand that Rest takes immediate action to end its investments in all companies pursuing new and expanded coal, oil and gas projects, publicly divesting current holdings and implementing a clear policy to exclude any such investment in the future.

To Spirit Super, A relatively small number of companies globally are responsible for the lion’s share of investment in new fossil fuel production and generation projects. Despite being small in number, these companies’ fossil fuel expansion plans alone could add the equivalent of almost 200 years of Australia’s national annual emissions. Continued investment in any company pursuing new or expanded fossil fuel projects is indefensible. I cannot stand for my super fund to be invested in any such companies. I was disappointed to see Market Forces’ analysis showing Spirit Super’s Balanced (MySuper) option has increased its listed equity investments in companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry from 5.79% to 8.13% over the six months to 30 June 2022. However, it is pleasing to see the fund’s stated goals of cutting both attributable CO2 emissions and attributable fossil fuel reserves 50% by 2030. Will Spirit Super be disclosing to members the specific impact of this policy on its portfolio, as a way of reporting on progress towards the fund’s goals? Furthermore, has Spirit Super already started divesting from companies with large fossil fuel reserves? If so, which companies has the fund started divesting from? Years of investors claiming to change companies and bring about climate action through engagement has clearly failed to stop these companies pursuing new fossil fuel projects and business strategies incompatible with the Paris Agreement. Even after five years of the world’s largest investor engagement initiative, Climate Action 100+, none of its 166 target companies have fully aligned their capital expenditures with the Paris climate goals. Claiming that remaining invested in companies expanding fossil fuels is leading to better climate outcomes is akin to greenwashing, something that ASIC is starting to clamp down harder on. More than half of Australian super funds (by assets under management) have now divested from thermal coal miners Whitehaven and New Hope in their active holdings. Several funds, including AustralianSuper, UniSuper and Vision Super, have also seen the writing on the wall for the oil and gas industry and started divesting from the likes of Woodside and Santos. Most recently, NGS Super became the very first industry fund to implement an exclusion policy on pure play oil and gas producers, like Woodside and Santos, in an important step towards the fund’s goal of achieving a carbon neutral investment portfolio by 2030. Spirit Super is lagging behind most of the industry on climate action. There are absolutely no excuses left for our fund not to implement the same (or better) climate ambitions and actions as NGS. I therefore demand that Spirit Super takes immediate action to end its investments in all companies pursuing new and expanded coal, oil and gas projects, publicly divesting current holdings and implementing a clear policy to exclude any such investment in the future.

To UniSuper, I recognise UniSuper has taken steps to decrease exposure to oil and gas companies. However, the fund’s last portfolio holdings disclosure revealed it retains significant investment exposure to Santos, a company with rampant oil and gas expansion plans that threaten our chances of a stable climate future, as well as local environments and cultural heritage. This investment Santos is the clearest example of where UniSuper must make immediate improvements to its climate approach. UniSuper’s earlier action on climate has also now been outshone by industry super fund NGS Super. NGS has become the first industry fund to fully divest from oil and gas companies including Santos and Woodside. There is no excuse for UniSuper not to raise ambition and at least match NGS’ climate ambitions. In fact, UniSuper should position itself as a true climate leader by pulling our retirement savings out of all companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry. This would help attract and retain members who want to see strong action on climate change from their super fund. The recent federal election showed the widespread community support for action on climate change. From the floods in Lismore to wildfires in Europe, the impacts of climate change are already being felt at home and around the world. I want my super fund to invest my retirement savings in a way that protects my future, not in companies undermining that future by pursuing new fossil fuel projects. I am calling on UniSuper to publicly divest from all companies pursuing new and expanded coal, oil and gas projects and implement a clear policy to exclude any of these investments in the future. To demonstrate immediate progress, the fund must divest its holdings in Santos. Sincerely,

To Verve Super, I am glad to be a member of a fund that does not invest in companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry during a time when global emissions need to be declining immediately and steeply. Only a relatively small number of companies globally are responsible for the lion’s share of investment in new fossil fuel production and generation projects. Despite being small in number, these companies’ fossil fuel expansion plans alone could add the equivalent of almost 200 years of Australia’s national annual emissions. Analysis by Market Forces (see: marketforces.org.au/climatewreckersindex) shows the average large Australian super fund’s default option has over 6% of its members’ share investments in these climate wrecking companies. Our fund has something to be proud of: our exposure to these climate wreckers is 0% (in the investment option profiled by Market Forces). However, there is always more work to be done. Clearly, companies that are still expanding fossil fuels either cannot or will not align their business strategies with the climate goals of the Paris Agreement, which is why our fund has made the active decision to exclude them from our portfolio. Yet there are still companies within our portfolio that need a nudge in the right direction to fully align their business plans with the Paris climate goals. I therefore urge the fund to continue to engage with its portfolio companies and investment managers and keep driving the positive change we need to see. Divestment from companies that either cannot or will not align with global climate goals is the responsible thing to do. However, where a company shows a serious commitment to aligning its strategy with the Paris Agreement, there is certainly a reason to push for change through investor stewardship. Sincerely,

To Vision Super, A relatively small number of companies globally are responsible for the lion’s share of investment in new fossil fuel production and generation projects. Despite being small in number, these companies’ fossil fuel expansion plans alone could add the equivalent of almost 200 years of Australia’s national annual emissions. Continued investment in any company pursuing new or expanded fossil fuel projects is indefensible. I cannot stand for my super fund to be invested in any such companies. I note Market Forces’ analysis (see: marketforces.org.au/climatewreckersindex) showed Vision Super’s Balanced Growth option had one of the lowest exposures to climate wrecking companies of the options captured in the study, with just over 4.2% of its listed equity investments in companies expanding the scale of the fossil fuel industry at 31 December 2021. However, I was disappointed to see the fund’s 30 June 2022 disclosure reveal this option’s exposure has increased to 7.19%. Worse still, Vision Super’s Sustainable Balanced option is more exposed to these climate wreckers than its Balanced Growth option, with its exposure increasing from 4.71% to 8.92% over the same period! Any investment in these companies is too much, which is why Vision Super needs to implement a fund-wide policy that rules out all investment in all companies expanding fossil fuels, including passive investments. Years of investors claiming to change companies and bring about climate action through engagement has clearly failed to stop these companies pursuing new fossil fuel projects and business strategies incompatible with the Paris Agreement. Even after five years of the world’s largest investor engagement initiative, Climate Action 100+, none of its 166 target companies have fully aligned their capital expenditures with the Paris climate goals. Claiming that remaining invested in companies expanding fossil fuels is leading to better climate outcomes is akin to greenwashing, something that ASIC is starting to clamp down harder on. I recognise Vision Super has a more impactful oil and gas policy than most super funds. However, NGS Super has recently outshone Vision in this regard, becoming the very first industry fund to fully divest from the likes of Woodside and Santos by implementing an exclusion policy on pure play oil and gas producers, in an important step towards the fund’s goal of achieving a carbon neutral investment portfolio by 2030. Vision Super should not only match NGS’ action, but become a true climate leader by pulling our retirement savings out of all companies pursuing new and expanded coal, oil and gas projects. I ask the fund to publicly divest current holdings in these companies and implement a clear policy to exclude any such investment in the future. Sincerely,
Of course I want to get updates about this campaign from Market Forces!

Explanation of super funds table categories

Coal exclusion policy categories

	Comprehensive	This super fund option excludes investments in all companies that are either expanding the scale of the coal sector (including extraction and transport of thermal and metallurgical coal, and coal power generation), and/or companies relying on scenarios consistent with the failure of the Paris Agreement to justify their future coal business prospects. No investments in companies like Whitehaven Coal, New Hope, AGL, BHP, or South32.
	Some	This super fund option excludes investments in companies deriving 33% or more revenue from thermal coal mining and coal power generation in both active and passive holdings. No investments in companies like Whitehaven Coal, New Hope, or AGL.
	Minimal	This super fund option excludes investments in companies deriving 75% or more revenue from thermal coal mining in both active and passive holdings. No investments in companies like Whitehaven Coal or New Hope.
	Reduced exposure	This super fund option has publicly disclosed details of a policy (such as low carbon benchmarking or stranded asset risk weighting) that reduces exposure to some companies deriving revenue from coal operations.
	Future commitment	This super fund option has no currently disclosed coal exclusion, but intends to phase out thermal coal exposure by or before 2030. By this time it will have no investments in companies like Whitehaven Coal or New Hope.
	None	No coal exclusion policy found.

Oil and gas exclusion policy categories

	Comprehensive	This super fund option excludes investments in all companies that are either expanding the scale of the oil and gas sector (including exploration, extraction, processing/refining, infrastructure, transport and power generation), and/or relying on scenarios consistent with the failure of the Paris Agreement to justify their future oil and gas business prospects. No investments in companies like Woodside, Santos, Origin Energy, Beach Energy, or APA Group.
	Some	This super fund option excludes investments in companies deriving 50% or more revenue from oil and gas production in both active and passive holdings. No investments in companies like Woodside, Santos, or Beach Energy.
	Minimal	This super fund option excludes investments in companies deriving 50% or more revenue from oil and gas production in active holdings only. No active investments in companies like Woodside, Santos, or Beach Energy.
	Reduced exposure	This super fund option has publicly disclosed details of a policy (such as low carbon benchmarking or stranded asset risk weighting) that reduces exposure to some companies deriving revenue from oil and gas production.
	Future commitment	This super fund option has failed to set an oil and gas revenue threshold, but instead intends to phase out oil and gas exposure by or before 2040. By this time it will have no investments in companies like Woodside, Santos, Origin Energy, Beach Energy, or APA Group.
	None	No oil and gas policy found.

What is the Climate Wreckers Index?

The Climate Wreckers Index is made up of the 190 publicly-listed companies from all over the world with the biggest plans to expand the scale of the fossil fuel industry. Specifically, the list includes:

The top 60 oil and gas producers by expansion plans
The top 60 coal miners by expansion plans and coal reserves
The top 30 companies by new gas power plant development plans
The top 30 companies by new coal power plant development plans
The top 10 companies by liquefied natural gas (LNG) import and export terminal development plans

Methodology

Scope

The scope of our analysis covers the default (or largest) investment option of Australia’s largest 30 super funds by assets under management, according to APRA’s June 2022 fund-level superannuation statistics (Table 1 and Table 2). Wherever these funds include an actively managed ‘sustainable’ or ‘socially responsible’ (or equivalent) investment option, these are also included in the table. Further to these APRA-regulated funds, our analysis includes state-regulated funds and a number of ethical super funds that are outside the top 30 funds.

Where mergers between super funds have occurred since June 2022, the single merged entity is listed on the table and occupies only one position on the table, unless the merged funds were found to have clearly separate default options with different investments.

The final analysis excludes HUB24, Netwealth and Macquarie, which do not appear to have default investment options comparable to the rest of those captured in the study.

Process: Exposure to Climate Wreckers Index

Portfolio holdings disclosures were collected for the funds listed in the table above. These holdings were filtered for listed equities, and we extracted all the investments whose security identifiers matched companies in the Climate Wreckers Index. We calculated and have presented the total investment exposure to Climate Wreckers Index companies as a percentage of total listed equities in the option, minus any allocation to pooled or managed investment fund products within the total listed equities allocation.

Details

Portfolio holdings disclosures are as at 31 December 2022
‘Total listed equities allocation’ does not include derivatives

Sources

Portfolio holdings disclosures for all funds are as at 31 December 2022, and were sourced from each fund’s website.
