Telstra Super's strong investment performance

Telstra Super has provided members with strong returns over the last 12 months, with around 80% of members benefiting from double-digit returns to 30 June 2010.

Despite the market volatility experienced during the last few months of the 2009/2010 financial year, double digit returns were achieved in various asset classes including domestic and international equities, as well as listed property. The combination of these results together with the performance of our other asset classes resulted in five out of eight investment options posting double-digit returns for the 12 months to 30 June 2010.

The accumulation investment returns for our diversified options were:
