Socially Conscious
The strategic asset allocation for the Socially Conscious option (renamed from the Equity Growth Sustainability option) changed on 1 February 2017 as a result of a restructure to the option. The investment objective for this option differs materially from that applicable prior to 1 February 2017 due to the change in strategic asset allocation (decreased exposure to growth assets and increased exposure to defensive assets). Therefore past returns relating to the period prior to 1 February 2017 have not been included in the calculation of investment returns above.

Equity Growth Sustainability
The Equity Growth Sustainability option was renamed the Socially Conscious investment option on 1 February 2017. Historical performance of this option (which was materially different in asset allocation prior to 1 February 2017) can be accessed via MembersOnline.

Australian Shares
This option was introduced on 4 February 2013 for VicSuper FutureSaver and 5 February 2013 for VicSuper Flexible Income.
Unit prices reflect the value of the assets or investments within each investment option. A new unit price is set each business day and published the following business day generally after 6pm for each investment option. To find out more see Unit prices (page 20) or how to change your investment option.

Note that unit prices are after investment tax (not applicable for VicSuper Flexible Income without TTR members) and investment costs but are not net of administration-related fees or insurance premiums (VicSuper FutureSaver members only).
