Trump presidency pushes Aussies to ethical superannuation fund

Financial Standard

|

April 22, 2025

The inauguration of President Donald Trump in the US and the heightened volatility and uncertainty that has followed has been boon for Future Super, the fund says.

- Jamie Williamson

Analysis of Future Super's member acquisition data shared with FS Sustainability shows a surge in new members in Q1.

Interestingly, the largest spike in new members came in the third week of January — the same week Trump was inaugurated and commenced his second, non-consecutive term.

In the three months to March end, Future Super had a 24% increase in new members joining. This is compared to the same period for the past three years.

Of the new joiners, 55% identified as male and 45% identified as female, and they were predominantly aged between 23 and 27 years old.
