Risk profile
- Offers greater emphasis on shares and property to achieve higher returns, but includes some lower-risk assets to moderate short-term risks. Investments are made with a focus on managing sustainability and environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks via exposure to companies and issuers that demonstrate leading environmental, social and corporate governance and ethical practices while avoiding exposure to companies and issuers with activities that are considered to negatively impact the environment or society.
- Further information about what ESG factors and exclusionary screens are applied when making investment decisions can be found below in the ‘Investment Strategy’ section.
- This option is likely to produce a negative return in 4 to less than 6 years in every 20 years.
Risk level
- High
Investor profile
Sustainable and ethical investment practices are incorporated into the Australian and international shares, Australian and international fixed interest and part of the Alternative investments asset classes of the SB Fund to avoid exposure to companies and issuers with activities or practices Pendal considers to negatively impact the environment or society* (refer to the ‘Investment Strategy’ section of the Balanced Socially Responsible investment option in the Pension Product Disclosure Statement for this option about how sustainable and ethical investment practices are incorporated into investment decisions).
Exclusionary screens are not applied to certain asset classes and financial instruments. Further information can be found in the ‘Exclusionary screens’ section of the Balanced Socially Reposnible investment option in the Pension Product Disclosure Statement.
The use of derivatives may result in the SB Fund having indirect exposure to companies or issuers that would otherwise be excluded.
Investing in the SB Fund offers investors a range of benefits:
- access to a professionally managed diversified portfolio with the potential for long-term capital growth and income.
- exposure to investments (within Australia and International shares, Australian and International fixed interest and part of the Alternative investments asset classes of the SB Fund) that in Pendal’s view support positive environmental and/or social change via their investment processes, use of capital, and/or active ownership while avoiding exposure to those companies and issuers with business activities that Pendal consider to negatively impact the environment and/or society*.
- access to the investment expertise of Pendal. The Balanced Socially Responsible option (via the SB Fund) is likely to suit investors looking for moderate to high returns over the medium to long-term, but who are prepared to accept fluctuations in investment performance over shorter periods.
Minimum suggested time frame for holding the investment is 5 years.
* As defined by SB Fund’s exclusionary screens and gross revenue thresholds

Investment Strategy
The Balanced Socially Responsible option (via the SB Fund) has a sustainability objective which aims to support the transition to a more sustainable economy (the Sustainability Objective).
Pendal defines a sustainable economy as an economic system which balances environmental, social, and economic factors.
The SB Fund aims to support this Sustainability Objective by aligning 50% or more of its capital (within Australian and International shares, Australian and International fixed interest and part of the Alternative investments asset classes of the SB Fund) in aggregate with investments that advance this transition. Pendal aims to do this by allocating capital to investments that in their view:
- Support positive environmental and/ or social change via their investment processes, use of capital and/or approach to active ownership.
- Avoid exposure to companies and issuers with business activities that negatively impact the environment and/or society*.
The SB Fund’s Sustainability Objective does not apply to derivatives.
Pendal applies its sustainability assessment to investments in the SB Fund’s Australian and International shares, Australian and International fixed interest and part of the Alternative investments asset classes of the SB Fund. Within these asset classes, it assesses an investment’s sustainability characteristics for alignment with the SB Fund’s Sustainability Objective.
Pendal’s sustainability assessment may consider the following types of sustainability characteristics:
- Positive screening or tilts:
Pendal considers whether the investment has a strategy in place that intentionally favours companies or assets that are considered to support positive environmental and/or social change via their investment processes. - Approach to active ownership:
Active ownership refers to the influence that can be applied to management teams and relevant stakeholders of investee companies and assets by asset owners via engagement and voting activities. - Exclusionary screening process:
Pendal considers the investment’s approach to screening out securities that are considered to negatively impact the environment and/or society*. - Sustainability reporting:
Pendal considers the investment’s approach to reporting their sustainability targets and commitments.
Pendal continually monitors the sustainability characteristics of the SB Fund’s investments.
If Pendal determines that an investment no longer meets the SB Fund’s sustainability criteria, Pendal may choose to engage with the underlying manager, company or issuer to address the issue. If the engagement is unsuccessful, Pendal may divest the holding (usually within six months) having regard to the interests of investors. The time it takes to sell an investment depends on factors including, but not limited to, the size and liquidity of the investment (which may have an impact on the SB Fund’s performance returns), and the time it takes for Pendal to assess suitable replacement investments that meet the SB Fund’s exclusionary screens and sustainability criteria.
* As defined by SB Fund’s exclusionary screens and gross revenue thresholds.

Pension investment options
Investment options and profiles for Transition to Retirement (TTR) Pension members are the same as the Super investment options.
The annual return and return objectives listed are net of all fees and tax except the weekly $0.99 Administration fee.
All investment performance and unit pricing is net of tax and fees, except the weekly $0.99 Administration fee. Returns have not been adjusted for the affect of any fee capping arrangement and are rounded to two decimal places. Investment returns are not guaranteed, and past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance.
This information on this website is general information and does not take into account your specific financial situation, objectives or needs. You should obtain and read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) relevant to your account type, found here.
You should also read the Target Market Determination. You should consider obtaining personal advice from a licensed financial adviser before making any decision based on matters included on this website.
Your personal return will differ from the above performance figures depending on your investment option(s), when you joined the fund, transactions, fees charged, and investment switches.
In the instance of a unit pricing error for exited members, compensation will be paid where the amount of compensation is $20 and above.
To view your own investment option, and your personal investment returns, log in to MemberAccess. For more information about unit pricing, and investment returns are applied to your account, refer to the relevant Product Disclosure Statement.
Each Investment option (with the exception of the Direct Investment Option) pools member contributions, which are then used to purchase assets such as shares, property, bonds and cash for that option. The assets of each option pool are notionally divided into units – or a share of those assets. The value or price of each unit is determined by the value of the pool of assets. As the value of the assets increase, the unit price rises. If the value of the pool of assets decreases, the unit price falls. If you contribute additional money to an option, you buy more units. If money is withdrawn to pay fees or to pay you a benefit, units are sold. To calculate the value of your investment, you multiply the number of units you have been allocated in the option by the current unit sell price.
legalsuper utilises the Standard Risk Measure, which is based on industry guidance to allow members to compare investment options that are expected to deliver a similar number of negative annual returns over any 20 year period. The Standard Risk Measure is not a complete assessment of all forms of investment risk, for instance it does not detail what the size of a negative return could be or the potential for a positive return to be less than you may require to meet your objectives. You should still ensure you are comfortable with the risks and potential losses associated with your chosen investment options.
