As a retail super fund, Future Super is a for-profit fund with a multi-layered corporate setup. Future Superannuation Group Pty Ltd is the owner of Responsible Investment Services Pty Ltd (RIS). [3]

The Fund was set up by a group of activists headed by former head of GetUp, Simon Sheikh together with ethical investment expert Adam Verwey.[1] At 20 July 2019, the Fund has a pension fund, plus three superannuation investment options, all fossil-free and ethically driven. The three superannuation investment options are: Balanced Index, Renewables Plus Growth and Balanced Impact.[4] Future Super charges a management fee of 1.9% (at March 2017) which has been criticised as high.[5]
