Future Super has reduced its fees on all of its investment options starting this month after the fund saw huge growth last year.
The fund said it had a 200% increase in new members compared to 2019.
Future Super chief executive, Kirstin Hunter, said: “There’s a long-held view that ethical funds are more expensive, however the fee reductions we’re announcing bring our balanced index fees to well-below the industry median.
“These lower barriers mean that more Australians will be investing in a future that they want to live in.”

The central bank has served up a disappointment for punters on Melbourne Cup Day.
The superannuation industry will be judged by its member services rather than how effectively it accumulates wealth, according to Stephen Jones.
The profit-to-member super funds are officially operating as a merged entity, set to serve over half a million members.
Super Review announced 21 winners at the annual Super Fund of the Year Awards, including the recipient of the prestigious Fund of the Year Award.
A Balanced Index fund at $530 p.a. may below the industry median, but is pretty darn expensive for an indexed fund.
