GESB's size and scale and our ability to manage administration, member services and investment strategy in-house at low cost means we can continue to deliver significant benefits to members, including:

• Fees ranked amongst the lowest 15 per cent out of 307 Australian superannuation providers for the majority of members¹ ;
