Russell signs UN Principles for Responsible Investment
Environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) issues are of growing concern to investors around the world. To address these issues and actively align our business with socially responsible initiatives, we have become a signatory of the United Nations’ Principles for Responsible Investment (UNPRI).
These principles are a voluntary set of global best practices that aim to provide a framework for integrating ESG into financial analysis, investment decision-making and ownership practices.
We’ve made some enhancements to make it easier for you to get the support and education you need to maximise your super.
New member cards have been developed so you can keep your member number and our contact details on hand for easy reference when you call us or want to access your account online. If you haven’t received your card please contact us.
Our website is also being redesigned so it’s easier to find the news and education you’re looking for – whether it’s on investments, super, retirement or the markets. Visit the website in May to take a look around.
Minimum account balance reduced for the Personal Division
The minimum account balance required for the Personal Division is reducing to $2,000 in July 2010 (it is currently $3,000).
Once your account balance becomes less than $2,000 your account must be closed. If you don’t let us know what you would like to do with your super within 60 days of being advised that your balance is less than $2,000 then your benefit may be transferred to the Eligible Rollover Fund selected by us.
